Scotiomyia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is distributed in Papua New Guinea, Singapore and China.
Chaetogonopteron is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Chrysotus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is one of the largest genera in the subfamily Diaphorinae, with more than 460 species. However, the genus is probably paraphyletic, and possibly even polyphyletic, with respect to several related genera such as Achradocera, Falbouria and Lyroneurus.
Cymatopus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Members of the genus are found on rocky coasts of the Indo-West Pacific.
Paramedetera is a genus of fly in the family Dolichopodidae.
Phacaspis is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Southeast Asia, Papua New Guinea and Micronesia. Flies in the genus are small, with metallic green coloring. They are marine, and are commonly found on mudflats in front of mangroves.
Phrudoneura is a genus of fly in the family Dolichopodidae from the Australasian realm. It was originally created as a subgenus of Sympycnus. It is currently regarded as incertae sedis within the family by Daniel J. Bickel (2013), though is possibly close to Sympycninae.
Scepastopyga is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. There is only one described species, Scepastopyga semiflava, which was described from Papua New Guinea by Patrick Grootaert and Henk J. G. Meuffels in 1997. An unidentified species of Scepastopyga was reported from Singapore in 2002, which is thought to show that the genus may be distributed across the Malesian Archipegalo. The fly is small, with a body length of about 2 mm, and is coloured yellow or brown without a metallic gloss.
Teuchophorus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Thinolestris is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. The genus is distributed along coasts of the Western Pacific and Southeast Asia, and members of the genus are found in the intertidal zone. According to Grootaert and Evenhuis (2006), adults are active on beaches with small pebbles mixed with sandy patches.
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.
Urodolichus is a genus of fly in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from the Afrotropical realm, Indomalayan realm and Australasian realm. It has been placed in either Rhaphiinae or Diaphorinae, though Grichanov & Brooks (2017) consider the genus to be incertae sedis within the family Dolichopodidae.
Hydrophorinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Several studies have found evidence that the subfamily in its current sense is polyphyletic.
Achalcinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is an ancestral group close to Medeterinae and Sciapodinae.
Kowmunginae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It was proposed in the World Catalog of Dolichopodidae by Yang et al. (2006) to include two genera previously placed as incertae sedis within the family. However, the validity of this new subfamily was later criticized by Sinclair et al. (2008). According to them, the subfamily's erection by Yang et al. (2006) was not justified by their phylogenetic analysis, and the genera included would have been better placed as incertae sedis until a later phylogenetic study determines their placement.
Sympycninae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. In some classifications, this subfamily includes the genera of the subfamilies Peloropeodinae and Xanthochlorinae.
Rhaphiinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Ngirhaphium is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from mangroves in Singapore and Thailand. The genus is named after Prof. Dr. Peter Ng, from the National University of Singapore, combined with Rhaphium, the name of a related genus.
Griphophanes is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Southeast Asia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo in Central Africa.
Hercostomoides is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Asia to Australia and the western Pacific Ocean.
