description: Genus DIADOCIDIA Ruthe, 1831
DIADOCIDIA Ruthe, 1831: 1210. Type species: Diadocidia flavicans Ruthe, 1831 [= Mycetobia ferruginosa Meigen, 1830], by monotypy.
MACRONEVRA Macquart, 1834: 146. Type species: Macronevra winthemi Macquart, 1834 [= Diadocidia ferruginosa (Meigen, 1830)], by monotypy. Synonymy: Winnertz (1852).
ACLADA Loew, 1850: 33, 35. Type species: Diadocidia parallela Evenhuis, 1994, original designation. Aclada originally proposed without included species. The type species designated is from the first species included within the genus in accordance with the ICZN.
MACRONEURA Rondani, 1856: 197, 214 (unjustified emendation of Macronevra Macquart, 1834).
PALAEODOCIDIA Sasakawa, 2004: 208. Type species: Palaeodocidia ishizakii Sasakawa, 2004, original designation (see Notes under Diadocidia ishizakii). SYN. NOV.
Subgenus A DIDOCIDIA Laštovka & Matile, 1972
ADIDOCIDIA Laštovka & Matile, 1972: 218. Type species: Diadocidia valida Mik, 1874: 329, original designation.
Diadocidia (Adidocidia) borealis Coquillett, 1900 NEA Diadocidia borealis Coquillett, 1900: 390. TYPE LOCALITY: Canada (British Columbia) [H 3 in USNM]. DISTRIBUTION: NEARCTIC: Canada (British Columbia); USA (California, New Hampshire, North Carolina,
Oregon, South Carolina, Washington).
Diadocidia (Adidocidia) fissa Zaitzev, 1994 PAL Diadocidia fissa Zaitzev, 1994: 61. TYPE LOCALITY: Central European Russia (Kostroma Region) [H 3 in IEME].
DISTRIBUTION: PALAEARCTIC: Europe: Central European Russia (Kostroma Region).
Diadocidia (Adidocidia) ishizakii (Sasakawa, 2004) COMB. NOV. PAL
Palaeodocidia ishizakii Sasakawa, 2004: 209. TYPE LOCALITY: Japan [H 3 in OMNH].
DISTRIBUTION: PALAEARCTIC: Asia: Japan.
Note: The genus Palaeodocidia Sasakawa, 2004 was delimited from Diadocidia based on the number of the flagellar segments, stated to be 14 in Palaeodocidia and 15 in Diadocidia. This was probably on the basis of “2+15” antennal segments being reported in error by Laštovka & Matile (1972). The number of flagellomeres in Diadocidia is actually 14. The first antennal flagellomere in Palaeodocidia is four times as long as wide and anepisternum setose as is typical of the subgenus Adidocidia.
