Peloropeodinae
Peloropeodinae is a subfamily of fly, flies in the family Dolichopodidae. In some classifications, the genera of the subfamily are included in Sympycninae. According to a Molecular phylogenetics#Molecular phylogenetic analysis, molecular phylogenetic analysis of the family Dolichopodidae by Germann ''et al.'' (2011), the subfamily is polyphyletic.

Anepsiomyia
''Anepsiomyia'' is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It contains only one extant species from Europe, ''Anepsiomyia flaviventris''. The systematic position of the genus is currently uncertain: it has been variously placed in subfamilies such as Sympycninae and Peloropeodinae. Taxonomic history The species ''Anepsiomyia flaviventris'' was first described as ''Porphyrops flaviventris'' by Johann Wilhelm Meigen in 1824. In 1857, Hermann Loew classified the species as its own genus, ''Anepsius'', which he considered to be most closely related to the genus '' Sympycnus''; the name ''Anepsius'' is derived from the Ancient Greek word (, 'cousin'), referring to this close relationship. Later, Mario Bezzi found this name to be preoccupied by the darkling beetle genus ''Anepsius'' (LeConte, 1851), so he renamed Loew's genus to ''Anepsiomyia'' in 1902. Two fossil species from the Eocene of Russia and Belarus were formerly placed in this genus, ''Anepsiomyia planipedia'' and ' ...

Dolichopodidae
Dolichopodidae, the long-legged flies, are a large, cosmopolitan family of true flies with more than 8,000 described species in about 250 genera. The genus '' Dolichopus'' is the most speciose, with some 600 species. Dolichopodidae generally are small flies with large, prominent eyes and a metallic cast to their appearance, though there is considerable variation among the species. Most have long legs, though some do not. In many species, the males have unusually large genitalia which are taxonomically useful in identifying species. Most adults are predatory on other small animals, though some may scavenge or act as kleptoparasites of spiders or other predators. Description Dolichopodidae are a family of flies ranging in size from minute to medium-sized (1mm to 9mm). They have characteristically long and slender legs, though their leg length is not as striking as in families such as the Tipulidae. Their posture often is stilt-like standing high on their legs, with the body ...

The grouping is said to be paraphyletic ''with respect to'' the excluded subgroups. In co .... The genus was originally named ''Alishania'' by Daniel J. Bickel in 2004, named after Alishan, a locality in Taiwan where all specimens of the species were collected; however, this name was preoccupied by ''Alishania'' Vilbaste, 1969, so it was renamed to ''Alishanimyia'' by Bickel in 2007. The specific name, ''elmohardyi'', was named in memory of D. Elmo Hardy. References Peloropeodinae Dolichopodidae genera Diptera of Asia In ...
