Diagnosis. The family Bombyliidae is divided in two artificial groups, Homoeophthalmae and Tomophthalmae, based on postcranial features. Phthiria belongs to the Homoeophthalmae and the subfamily Phthiriinae , in this subfamily the genus Phthiria is easily recognized from all other genera by the following characters: Metapleuron with micropubescence, first flagellomere with short and sparse hairs, costal vein ending at anal vein, male terminalia rotated 180°, basistylus without mesal lobe bearing spines, apicomesal lobe well developed, and female spermathecal reservoir curved apically ( Evenhuis, 1990; Greathead & Evenhuis, 2001).
