Achradocera is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.[2] It is distributed in the Nearctic and Neotropical realms as well as in Polynesia.[3] Several Afrotropical species were also placed in the genus, but in 2018 they were transferred to Chrysotus.[4] Achradocera was formerly considered a subgenus of Chrysotus, but was restored as a separate genus by Harold E. Robinson (1975).[3]
