Anasyntormon is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. [4] It was originally placed in the subfamily Rhaphiinae near Syntormon . It was transferred to Dolichopodinae by Hans Ulrich (1980), who found it to be congeneric or closely related to Hercostomus . [5] [4]
The genus was originally established by Octave Parent in 1932; however, as he did not designate a type species for it, the name was unavailable until 1975, when C. E. Dyte designated A. secundus as the type species. [2] The holotype specimen of A. exceptus was deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, which was destroyed during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. [4]
Argyrochlamys is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from the Afrotropics, the Oriental realm, and the southernmost part of the Palearctic realm.
Asyndetus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. There are more than 100 species described for the genus, distributed worldwide.
Katangaia is an African genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It was originally placed in the subfamily Rhaphiinae, though it was later transferred to Dolichopodinae. In 2005, based on a cladistic analysis of the subfamily, Scott E. Brooks excluded Katangaia from the Dolichopodinae. However, later authors have retained the genus in this subfamily.
Liancalus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It contains at least 21 species distributed worldwide except in Australasia and Oceania. The genus includes some of the largest species in the family, with body length approaching 12 mm in some species.
Metaparaclius is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Papua New Guinea and Australia. The systematic position and monophyly of the genus are currently ambiguous: the holotype specimen of the type species, Metaparaclius subapicalis, was deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, which was destroyed during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, and no other specimens of this species are currently known.
Nurteria is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae, found in the Afrotropical realm. Three species are currently known in the genus, but there are also numerous undescribed species of the genus from southern Africa. It was originally described in the subfamily Diaphorinae, though it possesses some features of the Sympycninae.
Paraclius is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Pelastoneurus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Stenopygium is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It contains two species which are found in the Neotropical realm, and is related to Pelastoneurus.
Sympycnus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Tachytrechus is a genus of long-legged flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Vetimicrotes is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is distributed in the Palaearctic realm. The genus was originally named Microtes by Theodor Becker in 1918. Afterwards, the name was found to be preoccupied by the grasshopper genus Microtes, so it was renamed to Vetimicrotes by C. E. Dyte in 1980.
Hydrophorinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Several studies have found evidence that the subfamily in its current sense is polyphyletic.
Dolichopodinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Diaphorinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Apelastoneurus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes 47 species from Africa formerly placed in Paracleius or Pelastoneurus.
Afrohercostomus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Many of the species were formerly from "Hercostomus Group I", one of three groups of Afrotropical Hercostomus species created by Igor Grichanov in 1999.
