Parathalassiinae

Parathalassiinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.[1] It is part of an extended concept of the family, Dolichopodidae sensu lato, and forms a monophyletic group with Dolichopodidae sensu stricto. It was once placed provisionally in the subfamily Microphorinae as the tribe Parathalassiini.[2]
