The Cylindrotomidae or long-bodied craneflies are a family of crane flies. More than 65 extant species in 9 genera occur worldwide. There are more than 20 extinct species.
Most recent classifications place the group to family level. This was not supported by phylogenetic analyses by Petersen et al. in 2010, but several studies and catalogs have since treated the group as a family, and they remain an established family.
