Nepalomyia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. [1] [4]
Species in the genus include: [2]
Species moved to other genera:
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.
Dolichopus is a large cosmopolitan genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Adults are small flies, typically less than 8 mm in length. Nearly all species are metallic greenish-blue to greenish-bronze. It is the largest genus of Dolichopodidae with more than 600 species worldwide.
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.
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.
Diaphorus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Lyroneurus was formerly considered a subgenus, but is now either treated as a synonym of Chrysotus or treated as a distinct genus.
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.
Micromorphus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Neurigona is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is a large genus, with over 150 known species.
Paraclius is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is currently considered a polyphyletic assemblage of species.
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.
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.
Teuchophorus is a genus of long-legged flies in the family Dolichopodidae. There are more than 130 described species in Teuchophorus.
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.
Dolichopodinae 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.
Parahercostomus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes four species known only from China. Members of the genus are metallic green in color and large in size, with a body length of 4.5–5.3 mm and a wing length of 5.2–7.0 mm. The generic name is a combination of the prefix para- with the generic name Hercostomus. According to Brooks (2005)'s phylogenetic analysis of the subfamily Dolichopodinae, Parahercostomus appears to be closely related to Grichanov (1999)'s Afrotropical species group 1 in the genus Hercostomus, which was later transferred to the genus Afrohercostomus.
