摘要
A catalog of the species of Asilidae occurring in modern India is provided, based primarily on an extensive review of relevant literature. We report nine subfamilies, 60 valid genera and 478 valid species present in India; 368 species (77%) of the fauna, are currently only known from India and may be endemic, while 27 more species have been removed from the Indian list. The catalog entries provide taxonomic, synonymical, nomenclatural, and geographic information for all species taxa. This work represents just the first step in what must be a thorough and systematic review of the Indian Asilidae fauna.
