Carnidae (Diptera) in the Canadian National Collection of Insects (Ottawa), with the description of five new species Author Stuke, Jens-Hermann text Zootaxa 2016 2016-02-29 4084 4 journal volume 31446 10.11646/zootaxa.4084.4.5 05cebf46-ed3d-4b8b-8166-f3d8b14dd53c 1175-5326 1052329 6370E474-5282-4C3D-AD1B-117061CE5B70 Meoneura Rondani, 1856 The genus Meoneura is by far the largest genus of Carnidae and there are 91 valid species known. The Nearctic species can be identified with Sabrosky (1959 , 1961 ). The basis for the identification of the Palaearctic species reported here are the keys of Collin (1930) and Papp (1978) . Additionally, the original descriptions of all species that are published later are taken into account. The identification of those species that cannot be identified with the keys of Collin (1930) and Papp (1978) are discussed in detail below. At present, only males can be identified with characters of the postabdomen.
