Abstract
According to the concepts, methods and principles of cladistics, and through the discovery of  many synapomorphy, patristic relationship, ancestral-descendant sequence transformation  characters, (recency of common ancestor), in particular, the recurrence of the ancestral-descendant sequence transformation characters in monophyletic groups and subgroups at different levels, the phylogeny of Chrysotus is clarified, on which, the natural history of the origin and evolution of the genus was revealed.

Keywords
Dolichopodidae, Diaphorinae, Chrysotini, Chrysotus, phylogeny, origin and evolution
