	Mycetophilidae
		Mycetophilidae is a species-rich family with about 950 species in Europe (Chandler 2004) and more than 3500 described species in the world (Søli et al.
		[3] Hutson A.M., Ackland D.M. and Kidd L.N. 1980: Mycetophilidae (Bolitophilinae, Ditomyiinae, Diadocidiinae, Keroplatinae, Sciophilinae and Manotinae).

		There is what looks like part of a curled leaf, a number of gnats (Diptera, Nematocera), a couple of fungus gnats (Mycetophilidae), 2 worker termites (Isoptera), and a scattering of ants (Hymenoptera, Formicidae).

	Mycetophilidae -a/o Catalog
		Among the world mycetophiloids, the family Mycetophilidae is the most diversified, with about 3,000 species in 150 genera and at least twice this number of species awaiting description.
		Some of the present families of Sciaroidea have long been treated as mere subfamilies of Mycetophilidae, and are still considered as such by many taxonomists.
		The phylogeny of the subfamilies of Mycetophilidae is far from being clarified, and several subfamilies are probably polyphyletic.

	Florida Entomologist, v. 81, n. 3, p. 282
		Among Diptera, bioluminescence is found only in the Mycetophilidae, but the variety of light organs in fungus gnats suggests multiple evolutions of the trait.
		This concentration of bioluminescence may be due to the unusual, sedentary nature of prey capture (i.e., use of webs) that allows the “mimicry” of a stationary abiotic light cue, or the atypically potent defenses webs and associated chemicals might provide (i.e., an aposematic display of unpalatability).
		In addition to the luminous Mycetophilidae, there are numerous instances of bioluminescent arthropods isolated from a phyletic history of bioluminescence; i.e., luminescence arising without sharing the genetic heritage of a recent luminous ancestor.

		There are national Recording Schemes for the five families of fungus gnats (Bolitophilidae, Ditomyiidae, Diadocidiidae, Keroplatidae and Mycetophilidae), Dixidae, Culicidae and Lonchopteridae and an increasing amount of data is becoming available for these families.
		There is now a substantial amount of data relating to the "fungus gnats" (Mycetophilidae sensu lato) due to increased recording effort in recent years and this has facilitated the assessment of the status of species.
		I have also been accumulating data on Platypezidae for many years and their distribution is becoming better known.

	Arachnocampa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The name was changed in 1924 to Arachnocampa, meaning spider-grub, for the way the larvae hang silk threads to trap prey.
		The genus Arachnocampa belongs in the Family Mycetophilidae.
		Arachnocampa species go through a life cycle of eggs hatching to larvae then pupating to an adult fly.

		Only fossils belonging to the nearest inclusive higher taxon were used for dating and such cases are indicated as RG in the table.
		In some cases (e.g., Australosymmerus), both the oldest fossil age of the studied group (SG) and the next inclusive grouping (RG: Mycetophilidae) are given; in others, more than one closely related group is used for dating (e.g., Masarinae).
		Botryocladius is probably younger than Late Cretaceous because it occupies a derived position within Orthocladiinae, which in turn is one of the most derived subfamilies within Chironomidae (Cranston and Edward, 1999).

		You are quite right, this is certainly Mycetophilidae!
		I recently changed the fly families in the guide around to fit the more modern classifications as used by European dipterists, but I've only learned the North American classifications so I don't know the difference between Mycetophilidae, Keroplatidae, etc.
