ZooKeys 441: 259–275. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.441.7143 Abstract A revised checklist of the flies of superfamilies Tephritoidea and Sciomyzoidea of Finland is provided. The following families are covered: Eurygnathomyiidae, Lonchaeidae, Neottiophilidae, Pallopteridae, Piophi- lidae, Platystomatidae, Tephritidae, Ulidiidae (Tephritoidea); Coelopidae, Dryomyzidae, Heterocheilidae, Phaeomyiidae, Sciomyzidae, Sepsidae (Sciomyzoidea). Keywords Finland, Diptera, checklist, Tephritoidea, Sciomyzoidea Introduction With over 7800 known extant species (Pape et al. 2011), Tephritoidea is one of the larger Diptera superfamilies. The nominotypical family of Tephritoidea, the fruit flies (Tephritidae), includes over half of the currently known species in the superfamily. The highest diversity of tephritoids occurs in the tropics. Six of the nine extant tephritoid families have been found in Finland: no richardiid, ctenostylid or pyrgotid have been found in the country.
