Sciapodinae
Sciapodinae is a subfamily of fly, flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Members of the subfamily possess several ancestral characteristics of the family, such as branched vein M1+2 in the wings (though M2 is absent or reduced in Mesorhagini) and a peduncle (anatomy), pedunculate hypopygium. They also typically have a deeply excavated vertex, giving their heads the appearance of a dumbbell when viewed from the front. Members of Sciapodinae are most diverse in South America, sub-Saharan Africa, the Indian subcontinent, South-east Asia and Australasia. The subfamily is suggested to have originated during the Early Cretaceous on the supercontinent Gondwana, which is supported by vicariant distributions in the genera ''Heteropsilopus'', ''Condylostylus'' and ''Parentia''.

Heteropsilopus
''Heteropsilopus'' is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. The genus comprises large-sized sciapodines mostly with a strongly sinuate m-cu and simple digitiform cercus. The strongly sinuate m-cu is considered to be a distinctive group autapomorphy. Distribution ''Heteropsilopus'' is divided into three species groups: the ''triligatus'' group of southern India and Sri Lanka, and the ''cingulipes'' and ''brevicornis'' groups of southern Australia and Tasmania. Both Indian and Australian species are similar. Development of similar characters on some species, such as the stub-vein on m-cu, further unites the two disjunct groups. The separation of ''Heteropsilopus'' into Australian and Indian groups is more a matter of geographical convenience than sharp morphological difference. The disjunction of ''Heteropsilopus'' in Australia and India suggests a widespread eastern Gondwanan distribution in place during the Lower Cretaceous. In India the genus is restricted to mounta ...
