Subfamily of flies
Parathalassiinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. 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.
According to a molecular phylogenetic analysis of the family Dolichopodidae by Germann "et al." (2011), there is strong evidence for placing Parathalassiinae within Dolichopodidae "sensu stricto".
Genera.
The subfamily currently includes 12 genera:
