Dolichocephala panesari is a species of dance flies, in the fly family Empididae.
The Empidoidea are a large monophyletic superfamily of true flies, the sister taxon to the Muscomorpha (Cyclorrhapha). These two groups are sometimes united in the unranked taxon Eremoneura. There are some 10,000 known species within Empidoidea, which are represented on all continents except Antarctica. They are known to have existed since the Jurassic period.
Empididae is a family of flies with over 3,000 described species occurring worldwide in all the biogeographic realms but the majority are found in the Holarctic. They are mainly predatory flies like most of their relatives in the Empidoidea, and exhibit a wide range of forms but are generally small to medium-sized, non-metallic and rather bristly.
Rhamphomyia sulcata is a species of dance flies, in the fly family Empididae. It is included in the subgenus Rhamphomyia. It is found in most of Europe, except the Balkan Peninsula.
Rhamphomyia lamellata is a species of dance flies, in the fly family Empididae. It is included in the subgenus Holoclera of the genus Rhamphomyia. It is found in Great Britain and Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary.
Rhamphomyia simplex is a species of dance flies, in the fly family Empididae. It has a limited distribution. It is known from Ireland, east to Germany and from Sweden, Finland and north-west Russia.
Empis stercorea is a large species of dance flies, in the fly family Empididae. It is included in the subgenus Xanthempis. It is found in most of Europe, except the Iberian Peninsula.
Empidinae, also called dance flies, are a subfamily of empidoid flies. They are mainly predatory flies like most of their relatives, and generally small to medium-sized. Most species are flower visitors and they can be effective pollinators.
Phyllodromia is a genus of dance flies. There are about 10 described species in Phyllodromia.
Ragadidae is a family of true flies in the superfamily Empidoidea. It was formerly considered a lower taxon, but was published as a new subfamily within Empididae in 2016. Since then, it has been classified as the sister group to Empididae, and has been elevated to family level based on the genetic differences which separate it from Empididae.
