Taxonomy

Until 2006, Brachystomatinae was classified as a subfamily within Empididae, at which point a new phylogeny was proposed in which the lineage was raised to family rank[2], though other contemporaneous studies did not support this conclusion[3][4], and in 2018 a new analysis indicated that the treatment of Brachystomatinae as a family rendered Empididae paraphyletic, and restored it to the rank of subfamily.[1]

Genera

gollark: There are fancier and possibly more accurate ways to explain this but I can't currently be bothered.
gollark: `x mod y` is just the remainder when `x` is divided by `y`.
gollark: While you're here, consider some x where x^2 mod 384 = 8.3. Continue considering it. This is NOT to distract you.
gollark: So they should line up.
gollark: "Bad" inasmuch as you were seemingly saying that "balanced" outcomes were always the "good" ones earlier.
