Cheiromyia maculipennis (Van Duzee) : Brooks 2005: 43.

Remarks. Cheiromyia maculipennis (Van Duzee) is transferred to Paraclius Loew as a result of the restricted generic concept of Cheiromyia adopted here. This species was originally described in Sarcionus Aldrich (= Pelastoneurus Loew , see Brooks 2005) and subsequently transferred to Cheiromyia by Brooks (2005) because of its similarly enlarged and folded sperm pump. This species keys out to Paraclius in Bickel’s (2009) recent treatment of the New World dolichopodid genera.

Type material examined. HOLOTYPE 3 from Cuyuni-Mazaruni (Region 7), Guyana, labelled: “Kartabo [06°23'N 58°42'W]/ Bartica District/ British Guiana / 1921”; “ Sarcionus / maculipennis / Holotype. Van Duzee” ( AMNH).
