Lipoptilocnema Townsend is a small genus of Neotropical Sarcophaginae with a distinctive genitalic morphology. This genus is revised based on the examination of the type series and large numbers of specimens of the seven previously known species, plus three new ones herein described, one from Argentina (L. delfinado Mulieri and Mello-Patiu, sp. nov.), and two from Brazil (L. savana Mulieri and Mello-Patiu, sp. nov. and L. tibanae Mulieri and Mello-Patiu, sp. nov.). All species are described or redescribed and illustrated. Distribution maps and a key for male identification are provided. The taxonomic position of this genus is reviewed and the interpretation of phallic structures is discussed. Notes on the natural history of Lipoptilocnema species are provided, and their potential importance as PMI indicators is highlighted, including the first record of Lipoptilocnema reared from a dead human body.
Lipoptilocnema Townsend是新热带区麻蝇亚科的一个小属，具有独特的生殖器形态。基于对模式系列以及七个先前已知物种的大量标本的检查，对该属进行了修订，另外还描述了三个新物种，一个来自阿根廷（L. delfinado Mulieri和Mello-Patiu，新种），两个来自巴西（L. savana Mulieri和Mello-Patiu，新种以及L. tibanae Mulieri和Mello-Patiu，新种）。所有物种均进行了描述或重新描述并配有插图。提供了分布图和雄性鉴别检索表。回顾了该属的分类地位并讨论了阳茎结构的解释。提供了关于Lipoptilocnema物种自然史的注释，并强调了它们作为死后间隔时间（PMI）指标的潜在重要性，包括从尸体饲养出Lipoptilocnema的首次记录。
