Abstract

A checklist of the Braulidae (1 species), Camillidae (3 spp.), Diastatidae (10 spp.) and Drosophilidae (67 spp.) of Finland is presented. Campichoetinae is included as a subfamily of Diastatidae.

Highlights

  • The Ephydroidea is recognized as a well-supported, probably monophyletic clade of acalyptrate flies (Wiegmann et al 2011), the correct placement of some of the included families – especially the very unsual bee louses of family Braulidae – is still being discussed

  • World catalogues have been recently published for Diastatidae (Mathis and Barraclough 2011) and Drosophilidae (Brake and Bächli 2008)
