Lamprochromus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is generally placed in the subfamily Sympycninae, though a molecular phylogenetic analysis of the family Dolichopodidae by Germann et al. (2011) suggested that the genus should be placed in the subfamily Rhaphiinae. [2]

Diostracus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes about 100 species described from the Nearctic, Palaearctic and Oriental realms. In 2013, it was expanded to include the former genera Lagodechia and Sphyrotarsus as subgenera.

<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.
