Visual Description
The available images of Atrichopogon brunnipes from the TreeOfLife-200M dataset show specimens typical of the family Ceratopogonidae.[1] Due to the nature of these images as museum specimens, fine morphological details are difficult to resolve; however, the specimens exhibit the characteristic small, delicate body form of biting midges, with slender legs and wings that are typically held folded over the abdomen.[1]
