This family was very poorly known from the whole of Italy until quite recently. The checklist ( Canzoneri et al. 1995) lists only one species of Meoneura Rondani, 1856 . The paper by Stuke & Barták (2019) adds more species and the new record from Sicily brings the total number of the known Italian species of Meoneura to 13. A few more species can be expected from Sicily. The biology of this family includes larvae developing as ectoparasites of birds, development in dung and in compost.
