Dichromya Robineau-Desvoidy , 1830 : 707 . ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: Dichromya brasiliensis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 . TYPE SPECIES : Dichromya brasiliensis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 , by monotypy . CURRENT STATUS: Valid genus [ teste McAlpine (1985: 219) ]. FAMILY: HELEOMYZIDAE . REMARKS: Malloch (1933) did not study specimens, but treated Dichromya Robineau-Desvoidy (essentially as unplaced) in Ulidiidae simply to record the included species. Although it is not listed in the Neotropical catalogs of either the Heleomyzidae ( Gill, 1968 ) or Otitidae ( Steyskal, 1968b ) , McAlpine (1985) listed the Neotropical Dichromya among other genus-group names of Heleomyzidae in his review of Australian genera of Heleomyzidae , and we follow that treatment here.
