Urodolichus is a genus of fly in the family Dolichopodidae. [1] [4] It is known from the Afrotropical realm (Seychelles and Madagascar), Indomalayan realm and Australasian realm (New Guinea). It has been placed in either Rhaphiinae or Diaphorinae, though Grichanov & Brooks (2017) consider the genus to be incertae sedis within the family Dolichopodidae. [5]

Lichtwardtia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from the Afrotropical, Oriental and Australasian realms.
