STRATIOMYIDAE

REMARKS: Name made available as an emendation by virtue of similar spelling changes in two or more names from “myia” to “mya” in the same work.
Chrysomyia
Macquart, 1834
is the earliest available name for the genus but in order to maintain nomenclatural and taxonomic stability, the I.C.Z.N. (1987: 148
[Opinion 1443]) suppressed the little-used
Chrysomyia
Macquart,
1834
in favor of
Microchrysa
Loew, 1855
