Lichtwardtia is a genus of
flies in the family
Dolichopodidae.[2] It is known from the
Afrotropical,
Oriental and
Australasian realms. It can be recognised by its zigzag-shaped M vein on the wings, and its feather-like hairs on the apex segment of the antennae. In a phylogenetic analysis of the subfamily
Dolichopodinae by Scott E. Brooks in 2005, Lichtwardtia is considered to be a synonym of Dolichopus,[3] but subsequent authors have retained it as a valid genus.[4][5]
