Prohercostomus is an extinct genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae, known from Baltic amber from the Eocene. It was originally created as a subgenus of Hercostomus, but was later raised to genus rank.[5]

Species

  • Prohercostomus bickeli (Evenhuis, 1994)
  • Prohercostomus interceptus (Meunier, 1907)[6]
  • Prohercostomus intremulus (Meunier, 1907)[6]
  • Prohercostomus meunierianus (Evenhuis, 1994)
  • Prohercostomus monotonus (Meunier, 1907)[6]
  • Prohercostomus negotiosus (Meunier, 1907)[6][7]
  • Prohercostomus noxialis (Meunier, 1907)[6][7] (synonym: Sympycnites primaevus Grimaldi & Cumming, 1999)[2]
