Subfamily of flies
Kowmunginae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It was proposed in the "World Catalog of Dolichopodidae (Insecta: Diptera)" by Yang "et al." (2006) to include two genera previously placed as "incertae sedis" within the family. However, the validity of this new subfamily was later criticized by Sinclair "et al." (2008). According to them, the subfamily's erection by Yang "et al." (2006) was not justified by their phylogenetic analysis, and the genera included would have been better placed as "incertae sedis" until a later phylogenetic study determines their placement.
