The Brachyceran infraorder Tabanomorpha is a small group that consists primarily of two large families, the Tabanidae and Rhagionidae, and an assortment of very small affiliated families, most of which have been included within the Rhagionidae.
British Soldierflies and their allies (an illustrated guide to their identification and ecology) is a book by Alan E. Stubbs and Martin Drake, published by the British Entomological and Natural History Society in 2001. A second edition was published in 2014.
The larger brachycera is a name which refers to flies in the following families of the suborder Brachycera:
Athericidae is a small family of flies known as water snipe flies or ibis flies. They used to be placed in the family Rhagionidae, but were removed by Stuckenberg in 1973. They are now known to be more closely related to Tabanidae. Species of Athericidae are found worldwide.
Atherix ibis, the yellow-legged water-snipefly, is a species of ibis flies belonging to the family Athericidae, a small family very similar to Rhagionidae.
Atherix marginata, the black-legged water-snipefly, is a species of ibis flies belonging to the family Athericidae, a small family very similar to the Rhagionidae.
Atherix is a genus of 'ibis flies' belonging to the family Athericidae, a small family very similar to the Rhagionidae. Species within this genus are present in most of Europe and also in the Nearctic realm.
Brian Roy Stuckenberg was a South African entomologist who specialised in Diptera.
Oreoleptidae is a family of flies. The family was established in 2005 on the basis of the type species Oreoleptis torrenticola placed in the monotypic genus Oreoleptis. The only known species was collected from the Rocky Mountains where the larvae grow in torrential streams. Larvae have also been found in groundwater wells. The larvae are similar to those of Athericidae and Tabanidae but with long crocheted false-legs (prolegs) arising from abdominal segments 2-7. The larvae have hollow mandibular hooks.
Atherix pachypus is a species of watersnipe fly in the family Athericidae.
Atherix variegata is a species of watersnipe fly in the family Athericidae. It is found in Canada and the United States.
Dasyomma is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Asuragina is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Atrichops is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Microphora is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Pachybates is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Suraginella is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Trichacantha is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Xeritha is a genus of flies in the family Athericidae.
Atrichops crassipes is a species of watersnipe fly in the family Athericidae.
