Identity of the previously unrecognized Chetogena flaviceps and its synonymy with C. scutellaris (Diptera: Tachinidae) [PDF]
The single type specimen of the unrecognized species, Chetogena flaviceps (Bigot), was examined and found to be a subjective senior synonym of the well-known New World species of Chetogena scutellaris Wulp. The genitalia of the holotype was dissected and

Actia interrupta is a larval tachinid parasitoid that plays a key role in regulating low‐density populations of the eastern spruce budworm. We describe its immature stages, life‐history traits, host‐searching behavior, development, and confirm its larviparous reproductive strategy.

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

We present the first ecological application of InsectMorphoAI, a tool estimating curvilinear body length and body volume from two‐dimensional fly images. Applying this approach to tachinid flies from a Mediterranean forest near Rome, Italy, we quantified species composition, abundance, body size, body proportions, and biomass proxies in assemblages ...

The Phylogenetics of Tachinidae (insecta: Diptera) with an Emphasis on Subfamily Structure [PDF]
The parasitoid flies of the Tachinidae family are an important and diverse (\u3e10,000 species) lineage of insects. However, tachinids are not well studied partially due to their confusing classification and taxonomy.
