Proceromyia

Proceromyia is a genus of flies in the family Tachinidae. It was originally a subgenus of Ceromya, but was later raised in rank to genus by James E. O'Hara in 1989.[2] It was reviewed by T. Tachi and H. Shima in 2006 and was confirmed to be monophyletic; it was also found to form a monophyletic group with Entomophaga.[3]
