Conchopus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.[2][1] It is distributed in Japan , China , Taiwan, the Hawaiian Islands, and Wake Island. The species Conchopus borealis is also an introduced species in North America and South America.[3] Members of the genus live exclusively in the intertidal zone of rocky shores.[1] The genus is sometimes considered a synonym of Thambemyia, but is considered a valid genus by some authors.[4]
Taxonomy and species
Takagi (1965) originally divided the genus into seven species groups. According to Masunaga et al. (2005) and Masunaga & Saigusa (2010), the genus can be divided into two clades: one containing the rectus species group (including the type species), and the other containing all other species groups, for which the authors intended to propose a new genus. The latter clade they also consider to be the sister group of Thambemyia.[5][3]
rectus species group (= Conchopus sensu stricto):
- Conchopus acrosticalis (Parent, 1937)[6] – Hawai‘i, Maui, Lāna‘i, Moloka‘i
- Conchopus borealis Takagi, 1965[1] – Japan, North America (introduced), Peru (introduced)
- Conchopus ciliatus Masunaga & Saigusa, 2010[3] – Hawai‘i, Maui, O‘ahu, Lisianski
- Conchopus crassinervis Masunaga & Saigusa, 2010[3] – Kaua‘i
- Conchopus menehune Masunaga & Saigusa, 2010[3] – Kaua‘i, Nihoa

- Conchopus pudicus Takagi, 1965[1] – Japan
- Conchopus rectus Takagi, 1965[1] – Japan, China
