Mycodiplosis is a genus of gall midges.[1] The larvae feed on the spores of rust fungi, powdery mildews,[2] downy mildews, Polythrincium trifolii, and Rhytisma acerinum.[3] It is thought that they are generalist, without strong preferences for individual species of rust; there is only limited evidence to suggest some degree of host specificity.[2][3][4]
