Perissommatidae is a peculiar relict nematoceran family with one extant genus inhabiting Australia and South America. The family is known since the Middle Jurassic, but the fossil record is very poor and is restricted to Asia. The description of three species of Collessomma gen. nov. from Lower Cretaceous of Transbaikalia and Mongolia-C. sibirica sp. nov., C. gnoma sp. nov., and C. mongolica sp. nov.-expands our understanding of the family in the Mesozoic, when Perissommatidae were much more diverse morphologically and spread geographically then now. Two previously described genera Gurvaniella Kovalev, 1986 and Limnorhyphus Hong, 1983 are transferred to the Perissommatidae.
佩里蚊科是一个奇特的残遗长角亚目蚊科，现存一个属，分布于澳大利亚和南美洲。该科从中侏罗世就已为人所知，但化石记录非常稀少，且仅限于亚洲。对来自外贝加尔和蒙古下白垩统的三个新属科勒蚊属物种的描述——西伯利亚科勒蚊新种、侏儒科勒蚊新种和蒙古科勒蚊新种——拓展了我们对中生代该科的认识，当时佩里蚊科在形态上比现在更加多样，地理分布也更广。两个先前描述的属，1986年的古尔瓦尼蚊属和1983年的湖沼蚊属，被归入佩里蚊科。
