Arachnocampa is a genus of nine fungus gnat species which have a bioluminescent larval stage, akin to the larval stage of glowworm beetles. The species of Arachnocampa are endemic to Australia and New Zealand, dwelling in caves and grottos, or sheltered places in forests. A previous synonym was "Bolitiphila," meaning "mushroom lover," in the past. The name was changed in 1924 to Arachnocampa, meaning "spider web-worm," for the way the larvae hang sticky silk threads to ensnare prey. The genus Arachnocampa belongs in the family Keroplatidae.

  • Arachnocampa ist eine vier Arten umfassende Gattung von Langhornmücken (Keroplatidae), die als Larvenstadium Biolumineszenz zeigen. Sie leben hauptsächlich in Neuseeland und Australien in Höhlen und Grotten oder geschützten Plätzen im Wald. Die erste entdeckte Art, Arachnocampa luminosa, wurde ursprünglich unter dem Gattungsnamen Bolitophila („pilzliebend“) beschrieben. Frederick W. Edwards trennte die Art 1924 von Bolitophila Meigen ab und errichtete die neue Gattung Arachnocampa („Spinnenraupe“, weil die Larven Seidenfäden spinnen, um Beute zu fangen) für Arachnocampa luminosa.
