1526964AFF83A83FFF40FD56E9DBDC93.taxon	discussion	Comments. In spite of the rows of anterior setae at the apex of FII and III, these are not true pre-apical setae, as those seen in Sympycninae and other subfamilies of Dolichopodidae. Indeed, Falbouria shows a typical Chrysotus - like habitus and, in most respects, F. a c o re n s i s could be regarded as a Chrysotus with stronger chaetotaxy. Parent’s (1933) claim that two postverticals — “ postverticaux ” in Parent (1938) are paravertical setae in Cumming and Wood (2009) — were of generic value to separate his genus proved to be misleading, as also displayed by other diaphorines. Strong setae on femora and tibiae seem more useful to recognize the genus while comparing it with species of Chrysotus (but see discussion below).	en	Capellari, Renato Soares, Amorim, Dalton De Souza (2012): Systematic position of the monotypic Azorean genus Falbouria Dyte with notes on the definition of Chrysotus Meigen (Diptera: Dolichopodidae).

As stated above, part of the material examined in this paper was misidentified by Frey (1945) as the Afrotropical dolichopodid species Chrysotus xanthoprasius. Hence, records of that species (as “ C. xanthoprasinus ”) from Azores by Negrobov (1991) and Yang et al. (2006) should be corrected. Apparently, this also applies to the Italian records for this species (C. E. Dyte, unpublished manuscript). Therefore, C. xanthoprasius must no longer be regarded as having a Palaearctic extension.	en	Capellari, Renato Soares, Amorim, Dalton De Souza (2012): Systematic position of the monotypic Azorean genus Falbouria Dyte with notes on the definition of Chrysotus Meigen (Diptera: Dolichopodidae).
