Olpodiplosis is a monotypic genus of gall midges, insects in the family Cecidomyiidae.

[1][2] This species occurs in North America and induces flask-shaped galls on several species of sunflower.

[1][2][3][4] The inducers over-winter in the galls, emerging as adults the following spring.

[4] The species was first described as Diplosis helianthi by entomologist William Brodie in 1894, but moved to Olpodiplosis by Raymond Gagné in 1973.
