Abstract: Subfamily Porricondylinae Kieffer, 1913 There is every indication that this is the most taxonomically diverse of the mycophagous subfamilies of Cecidomyiidae. Its 571 named extant species are classified in 88 genera, whereas the 615 species known of Micromyinae are accomodated in just 41 genera (Gagné & Jaschhof 2021). Each of the three tribes ‒ Dicerurini Mamaev, 1966, Porricondylini Kieffer, 1913, and Asynaptini Rübsaamen & Hedicke, 1926 ‒ is rich in genera and species, with Porricondylini being the largest and most complex tribe (Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2013). The Porricondylinae of Europe previously comprised 53 genera and 272 species, of which 21 genera and 40 species were known from Germany (Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2021b). New additions to the German fauna detailed here amount to 21 genera and 100 species, of which one genus and 24 species are new to science.
