Enlinia

Enlinia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. Flies in the genus are tiny, with a body length of around 1 mm. The genus is restricted to the New World. There are about 89 species described in the genus.

The genus was originally known as Collinellula, named by John Merton Aldrich in 1932. It was named in honor of J. E. Collin, who collected a specimen of the type species, Collinellula magistri (the specific name was also chosen to celebrate the ability of this collector). However, Collinellula was found to be preoccupied, so the genus was renamed to Enlinia by Aldrich in 1933, in honor of G. Enderlein, another collector of the type species.
