Achradocera Longiseta
''Achradocera'' is a genus of fly, flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is distributed in the Nearctic realm, Nearctic and Neotropical realm, Neotropical realms as well as in Polynesia. Several Afrotropical realm, 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). Adult males of ''Achradocera'' can be recognised by several secondary sex characteristics: their antennae have the first flagellomere elongated and swollen at the base with a narrow tip, and they have rows of thickened setae underneath the eyes. Species *''Achradocera apicalis'' (John Merton Aldrich, Aldrich, 1896) – West Indies, Mexico, Ecuador, Chile, French Polynesia, Tonga *''Achradocera arcuata'' (Van Duzee, 1924) – western United States, Mexico, Hawaii *''Achradocera barbata'' (Hermann Loew, Loew, 1861) – North America *' ...

Chrysotus Rutshuruensis
''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''.

Octave Parent
Abbé Octave Parent (15 June 1882, in Trescault – 9 February 1942, in Ambleteuse) was a French entomologist who specialized in Diptera, mostly the family Dolichopodidae. He became director of the Biological Station, Ambleteuse. He published three papers, dated 1934, 1937 and 1940, concerning twenty-six new species of Hawaiian '' Campsicnemus''. The type specimen In biology, a type is a particular wikt:en:specimen, specimen (or in some cases a group of specimens) of an organism to which the scientific name of that organism is formally associated. In other words, a type is an example that serves to ancho ...s of all the species described in the 1937 paper were deposited in the collection of the Hawaiian Entomological Society. The species ''Sigmatineurum parenti'', found in Hawaii, is named in memory of Parent, "in honor of his foundational work with Hawaiian dolichopodids and for describing the genus '' Sigmatineurum''". Publications Parent published numerous works from 1913 ...
