Trichopezinae are a subfamily of empidoid flies. They are mainly predatory flies like most of their relatives, and generally small to medium-sized, long-legged and large-eyed. Previously, they were included in the Clinocerinae or the Hemerodromiinae. In some more recent treatments, the Brachystomatinae are considered a distinct family, and the Trichopezinae are placed therein. However, it is more likely that the Brachystomatinae are part of the Empididae, and that the Trichopezinae represent a separate lineage in the same family. The monophyly of the Trichopezinae versus its closest relatives is not firmly established; it seems likely that some changes will be necessary to make this subfamily a natural group. ==Selected genera== *''Boreodromia'' Coquillett, 1903 *''Ceratempis'' Melander, 1927〔 *''Gloma'' Meigen, 1822 *''Heleodromia'' Haliday, 1833 *''Heterophlebus'' Philippi, 1865 *''Sematopoda'' Collin, 1928〔 *''Trichopeza'' Róndani, 1856 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trichopezinae」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
