This index comprises an alphabetical listing of the taxonomic names of the Tachinidae of America north of Mexico as contained in this online catalogue, as well as the “Excluded Species” named in the Introduction. Unjustified emendations and incorrect spellings are not indexed. Taxon and author names are formatted as follows:
1) Names of subfamilies and tribes are excluded. These are given in the table on the homepage of the catalogue.
2) Valid generic and subgeneric names are written in bold.
3) Valid species and subspecies names are written in regular type.
4) Synonyms, nomina nuda and nomina dubia are written in italic.
5) Parentheses around an author’s name indicate that the present genus and species combination is not the original one.
6) Only valid species and subspecies names are formatted to agree in gender with their respective genera. Species synonyms appear in their original combinations in the catalogue so their endings have not been adjusted for gender agreement in the index.

Abbreviations: A. & W., Aldrich & Webber; B. & B., Brauer & Bergenstamm; R.-D., Robineau-Desvoidy; S. & A., Sabrosky & Arnaud; S. & D., Sabrosky & DeLoach; T. & G., Toma & Guimarães; Tnsd., Townsend (in several places only to conserve space); Wulp, van der Wulp. Abbreviated author names are treated as though they were spelled in full for the purposes of ordering the index.
