Genus of flies
Achradocera is a genus of
flies in the family
Dolichopodidae .
[2] It is distributed in the
Nearctic and
Neotropical realms as well as in
Polynesia .
[3] Several
Afrotropical species were also placed in the genus, but in 2018 they were transferred to
Chrysotus .
[4] Achradocera was formerly considered a subgenus of
Chrysotus , but was restored as a separate genus by
Harold E. Robinson (1975).
