The type species of the genus Ohakunea is Ohakunea bicolor . This is endemic to New Zealand . The genus was named after the small town of Ohakune near the southwest slope of the Ruapehu volcano on the North Island . Other species of the genus are found in Australia , South America, and Southeast Asia . The genus Colonomyia (with the type species Colonomyia albicaulis ) is also known from South America, Australia and Papua New Guinea . The distribution area extends in the north to Central America, where the genera Cabamofa (type species Cabamofa mira ) and Rogambara (type species Rogambara dentata ) are native.
