Hercostomoides is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Asia to Australia and the western Pacific Ocean. [1]
The genus contains seven species: [1]
Acropsilus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is unplaced in the family, having been placed variously in subfamilies such as Sympycninae or Peloropeodinae. It is superficially similar to the Medeterinae.
Amblypsilopus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is a large genus, with about 350 species recorded. However, it is possibly polyphyletic.
Antyx is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae from the Australasian realm. The genus was originally placed in the subfamily Sympycninae, but it was later found to be closer to the Neurigoninae and was placed as incertae sedis within the family. In the World Catalog of Dolichopodidae by Yang et al. (2006), the new subfamily Antyxinae was proposed, in which Antyx is the only genus. However, the validity of this new subfamily was later criticized by Sinclair et al. (2008). According to them, the subfamily's erection by Yang et al. (2006) was not justified by their phylogenetic analysis, and the genus would have been better placed as incertae sedis until a later phylogenetic study determines its placement.
Asyndetus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. There are more than 100 species described for the genus, distributed worldwide.
Bickelia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is named after the Australian dipterologist Daniel J. Bickel.
Chaetogonopteron is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Chrysosoma is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is a large genus, with more than 200 species distributed in the Old World and Oceania.
Olegonegrobovia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae, known from Africa. It was first established in 1995 by Igor Grichanov, who named it after the Russian entomologist Oleg Negrobov. It was synonymised with Teuchophorus by Meuffels & Grootaert in 2004, but is considered a separate genus by Grichanov & Mostovski (2008). A molecular phylogenetic analysis from 2010 found support for the synonymy of Olegonegrobovia with Teuchophorus.
Phrudoneura is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae from the Australasian realm. It was originally created as a subgenus of Sympycnus. It is currently regarded as incertae sedis within the family by Daniel J. Bickel (2013), though is possibly close to Sympycninae.
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.
Telmaturgus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It has a cosmopolitan distribution.
Teuchophorus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
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.
Urodolichus is a genus of fly in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from the Afrotropical realm, Indomalayan realm and Australasian realm. It has been placed in either Rhaphiinae or Diaphorinae, though Grichanov & Brooks (2017) consider the genus to be incertae sedis within the family Dolichopodidae.
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.
Medeterinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
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.
Sympycninae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. In some classifications, this subfamily includes the genera of the subfamilies Peloropeodinae and Xanthochlorinae.
Griphophanes is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Southeast Asia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo in Central Africa.
