Family YUREBILLIDAE Southcott, 1966

 

Introduction

The endemic Australian family Yurebillidae includes a single genus and species, which is known only from larvae collected in leaf litter near Adelaide (Southcott 1996). These larvae do not fit any of the families of Parasitengonina as presently defined, and the correct taxonomic placement of the family is not yet clearly established (Saboori et al. 2010). Nothing is known of its biology.
