  • Diaphorus pseudopacus

    Diaphorus pseudopacus is a species of long-legged fly in the family Dolichopodidae, described by Robinson in 1964. It belongs to the genus Diaphorus, a group of small to medium-sized flies characterized by their elongated legs and metallic coloration. Very few observations of this species have been documented, with only 5 records on iNaturalist as of the source date. The specific epithet "pseudopacus" suggests a resemblance to or relationship with D. opacus, though the precise nature of this distinction requires examination of type specimens.
