%X The Australian species of two genera, Asyndetus Loew and Cryptophleps Lichtwardt (Diptera : Dolichopodidae : Diaphorinae), all from the north of the continent, are described in the wider context of the Oriental and Pacific faunas. The phylogenetic relationships of the two genera are discussed. The Australian Asyndetus comprises two species: A. infernus, sp. nov., and A. secundus, sp. nov., both of which are closely related to the Melanesian fauna. The Australian Cryptophleps comprises four species: C. cyplus, sp. nov., C. nova, sp, nov., C. inornatus, sp. nov., and C. yungaburra, sp. nov. In addition, C. atollensis, sp, nov., from Micronesia and C. solomonis, sp. nov., from the Solomon and Samoan Islands are described.
