Conchopus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.[2][1] It is distributed in Japan, China, Taiwan, the Hawaiian Islands, and Wake Island. The species Conchopus borealis is also an introduced species in North America and South America.[3] Members of the genus live exclusively in the intertidal zone of rocky shores.[1] The genus is sometimes considered a synonym of Thambemyia, but is considered a valid genus by some authors.[4]
Taxonomy and species[edit]
Takagi (1965) originally divided the genus into seven species groups. According to Masunaga et al. (2005) and Masunaga & Saigusa (2010), the genus can be divided into two clades: one containing the rectus species group (including the type species), and the other containing all other species groups, for which the authors intended to propose a new genus. The latter clade they also consider to be the sister group of Thambemyia.[5][3]
