Its immatures are decomposers of organic matter, and the adults are wasp and bee-mimicking, and often floral visitors. Stratiomyinae is the subfamily of Stratiomyidae with the largest number of described species, with 670, divided into three tribes. Stratiomyini has 25 genera and 460 species, of which 15 genera and 124 species occur in the Neotropical Region. The present study focused on the genera Rhingiopsis Röder, 1886 and Zuerchermyia Woodley, 2001, both Neotropical, with six and five species described, respectively. The last taxonomic study for the genera was carried out in 1979 by James & McFadden, and since then, the genera have not been revised. As a result, the Zuerchermyia and Rhingiopsis were redescribed, making available high-resolution photographs, including descriptions of three new species of Rhingiopsis. Cerrado is a biodiversity hotspot, being the Brazilian biome with the greatest susceptibility to human actions. One way to reduce the effects of the decline in the natural environment is the implementation of urban parks, which can act as refuges for insect species in the region. Currently, there are few studies on the insect fauna of the Cerrado, even with the entire habitat loss scenario, and there are even fewer studies on the urban insect fauna in cities located in the biome's landscape. In this sense, we collected 49,224 insects in 15 orders in three urban parks in the city of Goiânia.Acesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/TaxonomiaStratiomyiniAreas verdes urbanasBiodiversidade de insetosTaxonomyStratiomyiniUrban green areasInsect biodiversityCIENCIAS BIOLOGICAS::BIOLOGIA GERALDissertação
