''Qiniella'' is a genus of non-biting midges in the diptera subfamily Orthocladiinae of the family Chironomidae. The genus ''Qiniella'' was first described by Xinhua Wang & Ole A. Sæther in 1998 for a single species, ''Q. lii'', recorded from China. Posteriorly, Mendes and Andersen described two additional species, ''Q. copa'' and ''Q. thai'', from Malaysia and Thailand respectively. Only the male adults are known, but ''Q. copa'' was collected high in the tree canopies in Malaysia, suggesting that this genus has terrestrial-immature forms. ==References== *Mendes, H.
