Comments on the Classification of Neotropical Scionini (Tabanidae) with a Description of a New Genus

The classification of the Tabanidae had remained stable over the last 60 years after Mackerras proposed a great revolution in the arrangement of the family. Recently, some new proposals based on molecular data have once again changed the classification of the family, mainly with a focus on the tribe...
