Tribe Winnertziini Panelius, 1965

Winnertziini is the most species-rich tribe of the subfamily Winnertziinae , mainly due to genus Winnertzia Rondani, 1860 with more than 130 extant species globally ( Gagné & Jaschhof 2021). The secondlargest genus is Rhipidoxylomyia Mamaev, 1964 , previously with 17 extant species named globally; the remaining four genera contain fewer than five species each ( Gagné & Jaschhof 2021; Plakidas 2022). All genera described in this tribe, with the exception of Bernadottea Jaschhof & Jaschhof, 2018 , occur in Europe. Prior to the present project, the Winnertziini of Germany were poorly known, the only records being six species of Winnertzia ( Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2021b) . First-time records presented here amount to two genera and 40 species, including five species new to science.
