The subfamily Dolichopodinae is divided into two tribes, Dolichopodini and Tachytrechini, in Negrobov (1986, 1991).[6][7] In Brooks (2005)'s phylogenetic analysis of the subfamily, these tribes are not supported, and four informal generic groups are instead recognised.[8]

The following list of genera generally follows Grichanov (2017):[9]

Several extinct genera were described from Eocene amber near Fushun, China by Hong Youchong [zh] in 2002, but all except Leptodolichopodites and Fushuniregis (formerly Wangia) are considered unavailable names because no type repositories were specified for any of the new species described in Hong's work:[31]
