Liparomyia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae, known from Australia.
Dolichopodidae, the long-legged flies, are a large, cosmopolitan family of true flies with more than 7,000 described species in about 230 genera. The genus Dolichopus is the most speciose, with some 600 species.
Amesorhaga is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. All species in the genus are from the Oriental realm.
Arachnomyia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Australia.

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.
