Dolichopodinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

Systematics

The subfamily Dolichopodinae is divided into two tribes, Dolichopodini and Tachytrechini, in Negrobov (1986, 1991). [6] [7] In Brooks (2005)'s phylogenetic analysis of the subfamily, these tribes are not supported, and four informal generic groups are instead recognised. [8]

The following list of genera generally follows Grichanov (2017): [9]

Several extinct genera were described from Eocene amber near Fushun, China by You-chong Hong in 2002, but all except Leptodolichopodites and Fushuniregis (formerly Wangia) are considered unavailable names because no type repositories were specified for any of the new species described in Hong's work: [31]

<i>Argyra</i> Genus of flies

Argyra is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. The name "Argyra" comes from the Greek word for "silver", referring to the silver pruinescence found on the males of many of the species.

<i>Hercostomus</i> Genus of flies

Hercostomus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is a large genus, containing more than 483 species worldwide. Multiple studies have shown that Hercostomus is a polyphyletic assemblage of species.

<i>Chrysotimus</i> Genus of flies

Chrysotimus is a genus of longlegged flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is cosmopolitan in distribution, but it is probably paraphyletic with respect to several genera of limited distribution.

<i>Lichtwardtia</i> Genus of flies

Lichtwardtia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from the Afrotropical, Oriental and Australasian realms. It can be recognised by its zigzag-shaped M vein on the wings, and its feather-like hairs on the apex segment of the antennae. In a phylogenetic analysis of the subfamily Dolichopodinae by Scott E. Brooks in 2005, Lichtwardtia is considered to be a synonym of Dolichopus, but subsequent authors have retained it as a valid genus.

<i>Medetera</i> Genus of flies

Medetera is a large genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes about 350 species worldwide. The adults are commonly found resting on vertical surfaces such as tree trunks, on which they have a characteristic vertical upright stance. Because of this stance, they are sometimes known as "woodpecker flies". Medetera adults are predators of soft-bodied arthropods, while the larvae are predators of bark beetle larvae.

<i>Neurigona</i> Genus of flies

Neurigona is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is a large genus, with over 150 known species.

<i>Paraclius</i> Genus of flies

Paraclius is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is currently considered a polyphyletic assemblage of species.

Pseudohercostomus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is distributed in the Oriental and Afrotropical realms as well as Chile.

<i>Rhaphium</i> Genus of flies

Rhaphium is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is the largest genus within the subfamily Rhaphiinae, with over 200 species currently known.

<i>Sybistroma</i> Genus of flies

Sybistroma is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes over 50 species, described mainly from the Palaearctic and Oriental realms. A single species is known from the Afrotropical realm. Until 2005, the genus was thought to be restricted to the Mediterranean in distribution, with five known species. It was recently expanded to include the former genera Hypophyllus, Ludovicius and Nodicornis, as well as some species of Hercostomus.

<i>Syntormon</i> Genus of flies

Syntormon is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes about 110 species worldwide, more than 50 of which were described from the Palaearctic realm.

Thinophilus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes about 146 described species distributed worldwide. Most species of the genus are found in coastal habitats, while a few species are found in freshwater habitats.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Hydrophorinae</span> Subfamily of flies

Hydrophorinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Several molecular phylogenetic analyses of the family have found evidence that the subfamily in its current sense is polyphyletic.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Peloropeodinae</span> Subfamily of flies

Peloropeodinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. In some classifications, the genera of the subfamily are included in Sympycninae. According to a molecular phylogenetic analysis of the family Dolichopodidae by Germann et al. (2011), the subfamily is polyphyletic.

<i>Gymnopternus</i> Genus of flies

Gymnopternus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It was formerly placed as a subgenus of Hercostomus, but is now accepted as a separate genus.

<i>Poecilobothrus</i> Genus of flies

Poecilobothrus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Sympycninae</span> Subfamily of flies

Sympycninae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. In some classifications, this subfamily includes the genera of the subfamilies Peloropeodinae and Xanthochlorinae.
