Thevenemyia Bigot, 1875 a: 196 [1875b: clxxiv]. Type species: Thevenetimyia californica Bigot, 1875 View in CoL , by monotypy. [Unavailable name; incorrect original spelling.]
Thevenetimyia Bigot, 1875 a: 196 View in CoL [1875b: clxxiv] (justified emendation of Thevenetimyia View in CoL [by Bigot, 1892: 339]). Type species: Thevenetimyia californica Bigot, 1875 View in CoL , automatic.
Epibates Osten Sacken, 1877: 268 . Type species: Epibates funestus Osten Sacken, 1877 View in CoL , by subsequent designation (Coquillett, 1910b: 538).
Diagnosis. Hall (1969) summarized as “Quite similar to Eclimus Loew. The chief differences lie in the slightly swollen occiput, the smooth integument, partial development of the alula, the narrowly open anal cell and the absence of transverse abdominal depressions in Thevene[ti]myia.” Based on the Australian species, we further diagnose this genus as follows:
Mostly medium-sized, slender Bombyliinae . Male eyes mostly connected or narrowly separated ( Figs 1e View Figure 1 , 4e View Figure 4 , 7e View Figure 7 , 10e View Figure 10 , 13e View Figure 13 , 16e View Figure 16 , 18e View Figure 18 , 20d View Figure 20 , 23e View Figure 23 , 27e View Figure 27 ). Female frons about 2.5× as wide as ocellar tubercle ( Figs 2d View Figure 2 , 8c View Figure 8 , 14c View Figure 14 , 21c View Figure 21 , 24c View Figure 24 , 26e View Figure 26 ). Clypeus swollen. Flagellum one-segmented with apical style. Palp thin and long, extending beyond oral cavity, black with blackish brown hairs, two-segmented, with palpal pit. Mouthparts slender, labella thin and filiform ( Figs 1f View Figure 1 , 2e View Figure 2 , 4f View Figure 4 , 7f View Figure 7 , 8d View Figure 8 , 10f View Figure 10 , 13f View Figure 13 , 14d View Figure 14 , 16f View Figure 16 , 18f View Figure 18 , 20e View Figure 20 , 21d View Figure 21 , 23f View Figure 23 , 24d View Figure 24 , 27f View Figure 27 ). Scutum and scutellum with admixed hairs and scales. Three to four notopleural setae present, postalar seta normally absent. Scutum sometimes with small short spines ( Fig. 31d View Figure 31 ). Anepisternum, katepisternum, metepisternum, and mediotergite with hairs and/or setae, anepimeron, meron and laterotergite bare. Hind femora sometimes with short ventral bristles. Wing membrane various, from hyaline to mostly infuscated to having distinct dark marking on otherwise transparent wings. Female wing colour lighter in some species. Cell r 5 widely open; cell br much longer than cell bm; crossvein m-m long; cell cup narrowly open ( Figs 1d View Figure 1 , 2c View Figure 2 , 4d View Figure 4 , 7d View Figure 7 , 8e View Figure 8 , 10d View Figure 10 , 13d View Figure 13 , 16d View Figure 16 , 18d View Figure 18 , 19c View Figure 19 , 21e View Figure 21 , 23d View Figure 23 , 26d View Figure 26 , 27d View Figure 27 ). Male costa often with two rows of small spines ( Fig. 31b View Figure 31 ), absent in females ( Fig. 31a View Figure 31 ). Abdomen slender, tergites often with pale scales on posterior margin, apex tergites sometimes with dense long lateral hairs. Male epandrium wide and short, posterior margin slightly convex ( Figs 3d View Figure 3 , 5d View Figure 5 , 9d View Figure 9 , 11d View Figure 11 , 15d View Figure 15 , 17d View Figure 17 , 22d View Figure 22 , 25d View Figure25 , 28d View Figure 28 ). Hypandrium normally present. Gonocoxal apex slightly narrower than the base in dorsal view; gonocoxal apodeme strong and incurved; inner apex of gonocoxite rounded, elongate and broad; outer apex of gonocoxite normal length, rounded; gonostylus slender and pointed dorsally ( Figs 3a,b View Figure 3 ; 5a,b View Figure 5 ; 9a,b View Figure 9 ; 11a,b View Figure 11 ; 15a,b View Figure 15 ; 17a,b View Figure 17 ; 22a,b View Figure 22 ; 25a,b View Figure25 ; 28a,b View Figure 28 ). Female posterior margin of tergite 7 with slender dorsal median apodeme. Tergite 7 with ventral spines. Tergite 8 with a row of sparse hairs, acanthophorite spines present, lateral spines long, spines in middle short, apex of spines expanded. Furca connected at apex. Sperm pump strong and nearly as long as furca, not clothed in longitudinal muscle; distal spermathecal duct short but strong; spermatheca elongate, cylindrical ( Figs 3g View Figure 3 , 9g View Figure 9 , 15g View Figure 15 , 25g View Figure25 , 28g View Figure 28 ).
Distribution. Nearctic ( Canada, Mexico, USA), Palaearctic ( Algeria, Greece, Iran, Japan, Tunisia, Turkey), Afrotropical ( Mauritania, Madagascar), Neotropical ( Mexico [Oaxaca]) and Australian (all Australian states and territories except TAS).
