Abstract
The nominal taxon Tachina macularis Wiedemann is revised and redescribed from the adult and first instar larva. It is transferred from its current status as a valid species of Protomiltogramma Townsend to a position as a valid species of Eremasiomyia Rohdendorf, comb. nov. and senior synonym of Setulia luteicornis Villeneuve, syn. nov., Eremasiomyia setulioides Rohdendorf, syn. nov., and Eremasiomyia orientalis Verves, syn. nov. The nominal species Sphecapatodes maroccana Séguy is revised and redescribed from the adult, and is shown to belong to Miltogramma Meigen, comb. nov. The nominal genus-group taxon Capnopteron Rohdendorf was originally proposed as a subgenus of Miltogramma with the type species Miltogramma maculigerum Speiser sensu Rohdendorf). However, the latter is shown to be a misidentification of Miltogramma maroccana (Séguy), which herewith is fixed as the type species of Capnopteron.
