Pseudargyra is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes four species endemic to Chile. [2]
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.
Oedematopus is a genus of flies in family Dolichopodidae.
Achalcus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Achradocera is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is distributed in the Nearctic and Neotropical realms as well as in Polynesia. Several Afrotropical species were also placed in the genus, but in 2018 they were transferred to Chrysotus. Achradocera was formerly considered a subgenus of Chrysotus, but was restored as a separate genus by Harold E. Robinson (1975).
Australachalcus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is very closely related to the genus Achalcus, in which some of its species were originally placed. The name Australachalcus refers to the southern hemisphere, where the genus reaches its highest levels of species richness.
Condylostylus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is the second largest genus in the subfamily Sciapodinae, with more 250 species included. It has a high diversity in the Neotropical realm, where 70% of the species occur.
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.
Enlinia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Flies in the genus are tiny, with a body length of around 1 mm. The genus is restricted to the New World. There are about 89 species described in the genus.
Keirosoma is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is distributed in the New World. The subfamily has variously been placed in the Rhaphiinae, Diaphorinae or Sympycninae. According to Scott E. Brooks in 2005, the systematic position of the genus is still uncertain, though a possible relationship with Pseudohercostomus has been suggested.
Nematoproctus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It has an uncertain position in the family; different authors have included the genus in the subfamily Diaphorinae or the subfamily Rhaphiinae.
Paraclius is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is currently considered a polyphyletic assemblage of species.
Pelastoneurus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Pinacocerus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae, known from Chile and Argentina.
Somillus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes two species endemic to Chile.
Tachytrechus is a genus of long-legged 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.
Diaphorinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Hydatostega is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Most of its species are found in the Americas, where it is mainly restricted to montane habitats and high altitudes or latitudes, while three species are known from Tristan da Cunha, a group of islands in the South Atlantic Ocean. Hydatostega was formerly considered a synonym of Hydrophorus, but was recently restored as a separate genus.
Sympycninae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. In some classifications, this subfamily includes the genera of the subfamilies Peloropeodinae and Xanthochlorinae.
Lyroneurus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It includes 17 species distributed in the Neotropical realm. It was formerly treated as a subgenus of Diaphorus; more recently Lyroneurus has been treated as a synonym of Chrysotus, but Capellari & Amorim (2010) maintains it as a distinct genus noting that Chrysotus is possibly paraphyletic.
