The checklist of world Tachinidae offered here is a product of a larger project to database the world’s Tachinidae and eventually publish a comprehensive world catalogue of the Tachinidae. The history of the cataloguing project was reviewed in a past issue of the newsletter The Tachinid Times (O’Hara, Henderson & Wood 2019). The first version of the checklist was published online on 7 March 2019 and has been superseded by version 2.1, published online on 5 March 2020. Changes in the second version compared to the first were reviewed by O’Hara, Henderson & Wood (2020).
