''Contarinia'' is a genus of midges, small flies in the family Cecidomyiidae. Description As cecidomids, adult ''Contarinia'' are flies with hairy wings and long antennae. Males have antennal flagellomeres equally binodose, with each node surrounded by one circumfilum. The palpi are four-segmented. The tarsal claws of the legs are simple. The wing costal vein is interrupted after its union with the radius or third vein. Ecology Many species of ''Contarinia'' have herbivorous larvae that attack inflorescences, fruits, or buds of plants. They include a number of crop pests, such as ''C. nasturtii'' (attacks various parts of cruciferous plants), ''C. citri'' (attacks flowers of citrus), ''C. pisi'' (attacks flower buds of legumes), ''C. caryafloralis'' (attacks inflorescences of Chinese hickory) and ''C. pruniflorum'' (attacks flower buds of stone fruits). Two species of ''Contarinia'' are the main insects to visit inflorescences of ''Artocarpus integer'' (and possibly other ...
