Type species D. vulpes Loew, 1858: 337, by monotypy.</p><p>Neodysmachus Ricardo, 1925: 263 . Type species N.: setithoracicus Ricardo, 192 5: 264, by original designation. Syn. nov .</p><p>Ricardo (19 5) erected the genus Neodysmachus for one Cape species of Daspšetis-like flies which possess an open rs cell. This is insufﬁcient groundso n which to base a genus. Venation can be highly variable and the open or closed condition of wing cells may not be an entirely reliable feature. In. hermanni, for example, rf, may be open, closed on the wing margin, or closed and with a stalk-vein joining the cell to the wing margin. I consider Neodysmachus a synonym of Daspletis .</p><p>The separation of Daspletis and Microstylum is in some ways far more problematic as these genera share so many features. Both Hull (196) and Oldroyd 1974) use the character ‘ ﬁrst posterior cell open’ to characterize Microslylum in their keys. My preliminary observations on this genus indicate that the closed condition also exists, especially in species of the M. acutirostrae group. The genus Eclipsis Bezzi was listed as a valid genus by Oldroyd (1980) in the Afrotropical Catalogue even though Papavero (1973) had placed it as a 'subgenus' of Microstylum . The only described species of Eclipsis, E. maculiventris Bezzi, possesses a closed rs cell and is quite clearly related to M. acutirostrae and related species (some of which remain undescribed). It is obvious that this characteristic is unreliable. The strongly arched M; vein frequently used to characterize Microsgylum is also unsatisfactory as there are some instances where it is difﬁcult to decide if the vein is ‘ strongly’ arched or not. For the present I am relying on three other features, which appear to be common to all described species of Afrotropical Microsçylaém, to separate this genus from Daspletis . The facial protuberance of Daspletis occupies at least three-quarters of the face while in Microsçvlum this swelling is conﬁned to the lower half of the face and often only to a small area just above the lower facial margin. Daspletis species are more bristly; the dorsocentrals extend from the posterior to the anterior margins of the mesonotom, whereas in Micraslylum they are well developed only posterior of the transverse suture (there may be one or two small ones anterior of the suture but they are never found near the anterior margin of the mesonotum); the postmetacoxal membrane is covered with long setae in all Daspfetís while this membrane is bare in most Micrasÿlaem. The reliability of these features is not known with any certainty at present but I intend revising Microstyšam at a future date and this matter will be attended to then.</p><p>Daspletis appears to be active in late summer (Table 1); the exceptions being hermanni (which is active in spring) and setithoracicus (active from October-May).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/506A1E24E04FBC70FD33FAEBF34D58B8	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

SOUTH AFRICA: Cape Province: 1 ♂ 1 ♀ (Lectotype ♂ and paralectotype), Willowrnore, 25.x.1916, Dr Brauns (BMNH) ; 2 ♂ 6 ♀ (including ♂ holotype, 2 ♀ paratypes of D. salicior), Willowmore, 20.x.1921 I, Dr Brauns (NM) ; 1 ♂ Hopetown, Nelspoort, 19. ix.1940, G. van Son (NM) .</p><p>Previously recorded material: Ricardo (1925) did not designate a holotype but merely dealt with her specimens as syntypes. I hereby designate one of the males in the BMNH as lectotype and the other ♂ and ♀ paralectotypes. Ricardo also records 2 ♀, from Kimberley and from Cape Colony. These specimens are not in the BMNH but probably in the South African Museum (Cape Town). Oldroyd’s (1974) types of salicior included a ♀ from Twee Rivieren which deﬁnitely belongs to D. hirtus.</p><p>Remarks: Preliminary' work on the genus Microstylum, undertaken at the BMNH, revealed that M. hermanní Ricardo was the only described species of. Microstylum to possess a facial protuberance occupying more than half the distance between antennal bases and lower facial margin. and dorsocentral bristles anterior of the trans» verse suture. It has subsequently been noted that the postmetacoxal membrane in hermanni is covered with long setae like other Daspletis species and unlike most species of Microstylum. These features were possessed by all described Daspletis species and so, at least until more detailed work has been done on Microstylum, I suggest hermanni should be considered a valid species of Daspletis even though it is the only species displaying sexual dimorphism in wing coloration (a situation not uncommon in Microstylum).</p><p>Oldroyd's specimens of D.salicior from Willowmore are identical to others he identified as M. hermanni, a situation difficult to understand. His drawing of the male holotype genitalia of salicior (see his Fig. 25) shows the fused gonocoxitcs as rather short and with a sharply pointed subapical process. A rer-examination of the specimen shows that Oldroyd had not dissected it and that the fused gonocoxites were broken at the time the drawing was made.</p><p>Despite the intensive collecting done by Brauns this species was collected only in September and October (Table 1).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/506A1E24E048BC73FEE7F7E8F79C52F7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Previously recorded material: Loew’s holotype was collected by Wahlberg at “ N‘Gami ” According to Brink (1955) Wahlberg arrived at Ngami in April 1855 and was there until June when he moved further north. He returned for a few weeks in November of the same year. As vulpes appears to be active in late summer it is quite probable that his specimen was caught between April and June. Oldroyd (1974) records the species from Livingstone in Zambia.

Type species: D. saegeri Oldroyd, 1970: 269, by original designation</p><p>Oldroyd (1970) described this genus for two species from Zaïre ( D. nigra &amp; D. saegeri). I have not seen this material. Although he says that Dogonia has “ metanotal callosities hairy ” he compares it with Scylaticus, Cyrtopogon and Saropogon, all of which lack setae on the anatergite. He mentions that the genus keys to Neodysmachus in Hull’s key but incorrectly calls Neodysmachus an Australian genus. Despite these confusing comments I believe Dogonia to be a valid genus and use the following features to separate it from Dioctobroma (the only other genus to lack well-developed occipital bristles). Oldroyd's Fig. 44 shows that Dogonia saegeri has a face slightly narrower than the width of one eye in anterior aspect (eye face width ratio 1,39 1) whereas Dioctobrama has a wider face (eye face width ratio 1,03 1). Dogonia has “ antennae with two rather short, subequal segments”, a feature not seen in Dioctobroma where the scape is clearly longer than the pedicel. Males of Dioctobroma ﬂavoterminatum have very reduced fused gonocoxites, quite unlike the condition illustrated by Oldroyd for both species of Dogonia . The genital characteristics are likely to be of generic signiﬁcance.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/506A1E24E042BC65FE96FA7EF04452A3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
