Peloropeodinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. In some classifications, the genera of the subfamily are included in Sympycninae. [3] According to a molecular phylogenetic analysis of the family Dolichopodidae by Germann et al. (2011), the subfamily is polyphyletic. [4]
The genus Notobothrus Parent, 1931 [25] was formerly included in the subfamily, but was excluded from it and provisionally left incertae sedis within the family Dolichopodidae in 2020. [26]
