Bionomic of the Dolichopodidae Family (Insecta: Diptera)

Although Dolichopodidae is a family with many species, little is known about the diversity of species associated with agricultural environments and how their abundances are distributed in different habitats. To date, only one unidentified species of Condylostylus has been recorded in association with agricultural systems and presents high abundance in areas with vegetable crops, when compared to agroforestry systems. The purpose of this article is to obtain description of the Dolichopodidae Family (Insecta: Diptera). In this article, the bionomy of the Dolichopodidae Family will be studied. To this end, a bibliographic survey of Dolichopodidae was carried out in the years 1940 to 2021. Only complete articles published in scientific journals and expanded abstracts presented at national and international scientific events, Doctoral Thesis and Master's Dissertation were considered. Data were also obtained from platforms such as: Academia.edu, Frontiers, Qeios, Pubmed, Biological Abstract, Publons, Dialnet, World, Wide Science, Springer, RefSeek, Microsoft Academic, Science and ERIC.​
