%X The following genera are recognized in the subfamilies reviewed in the present paper :              SCEPSIDINAE   Neotropical : Scepsis Walk.   Ethiopian: Adersia Aust.; Braunsiomyia Beq.       Lesneus Surc. is excluded from the Tabanidae.             CHRYSOPINAE BOUVIEROMYIINI   Nearctic : Merycomyia Hine.   Neotropical: Merycomyia (northern) ; Mesomyia Macq., subgenus Veprius     Rond. (southern).   Ethiopian: Mesomyia Macq., subgenera Mesomyia, Perisilvius End., and     Bacloceras Aust.; Dasgcompsa End.; Pronopes Loew; Rhigioglossa     Wied.; Aegophagamyia Aust.; Bouvieromyia Strand; ?Triclida End.   Oriental : Eucompsa End.   Australasian: Mesomyia Macq., subgenera Vepriella, nov. (type frontalie     Ric.), Pareucompsa End., Lilaea Walk., Pseudotabanus Ric., and     Mesomyia; Phibalomyia Tayl.; Pseudopangonia Ric. CHRYSOPINI   Palaearctic: Chrysops Mg.; Silvius Mg., subgenus Silvius.   Nearctic: Chrysops; Silvius, subgenera Silvius, Zeuximyia Philip, and     Assipala Philip.   Neotropical: Chrysops; Silvius, subgenus Assipala (northern).   Ethiopian: Chrysops.   Oriental : Chrysops; Silvius, subgenus Silvius (extreme northern).   Australasian : Chrysops (northern). RHINOMYZINI   Ethiopian: Tabanocella Big.; Sphecodemyia Aust.; Orgixomyia Grunb.;     Thaumastocera Grunb.; Thriambeutes Grunb.; Hinea Adams.   Oriental: Gastroxides Saund.; Rhinowyxa Wied.     Surcoufia Krob. (Palaearctic) and Melissomorpha Ric. (northern Oriental) are accepted as presumably Chrysopinae, but cannot be allotted to a tribe from the descriptions. Evaluation of possible subgenera of Chrysops is not attempted in the present work.
