Asphondylia is a cosmopolitan genus of gall midges in the family Cecidomyiidae.

[1][2] There are over 300 described species in the genus Asphondylia, with many more likely to be discovered and described, especially in the southern hemisphere.

[1][2] Within the genus, characteristics of the larvae and pupae are often most useful for distinguishing between species since adults of most species look very similar to one another.

[3] The species inducing a given gall can sometimes be identified based on the shape and placement of the gall in combination with the identity of the host plant.
