Medetera is a large genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.[9][10] It includes about 350 species worldwide.[11] The adults are commonly found resting on vertical surfaces such as tree trunks, on which they have a characteristic vertical upright stance. Because of this stance, they are sometimes known as "woodpecker flies". Medetera adults are predators of soft-bodied arthropods, while the larvae are predators of bark beetle larvae.[2][12][13]

A 2011 molecular phylogenetic analysis of Medetera and related genera found that Medetera is

paraphyletic with respect to Dolichophorus, and that Thrypticus is a sister taxon to Medetera + Dolichophorus.[14]
