Neotonnoiria is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from Brazil, Panama, Costa Rica and Peru, and contains only one species, Neotonnoiria maculipennis.[2] The genus was originally named Tonnoiria by Octave Parent in 1929; however, this was preoccupied by Tonnoiria Malloch, 1929, so it was renamed to Neotonnoiria by Harold E. Robinson (1970).
