本文对澳大利亚速蝇科除Dufouriinae外各亚科代表属132种的雌雄后腹形态进行了比较研究。确定了后腹结构对该科高级分类的价值，并获得了新的信息，从而更好地了解了一些问题群的正确分类位置。有可能识别出每种性别的一组字符来定义每个亚族，但在大多数群体中，这在部落或一般水平上是不可能的。男性终末在特定水平上具有诊断意义。该调查还发现或确认了所包括属的生殖习惯，并提供了52种幼虫的一龄幼虫信息，其中许多幼虫在下文中是首次描述。讨论并举例说明了可能具有分类学价值的赤霉病的特征。
The comparative morphology of the male and female postabdomen of the Australian Tachinidae was studied in a survey which included 132 species of representative genera from all subfamilies except Dufouriinae. The value of the structure of the postabdomen for the higher classification of the family was ascertained, and new information gained which has allowed a better understanding of the correct taxonomic position of some problem groups of tachinids. It was possible to recognise suites of characters for each sex to define each subfamily, but his was not possible at tribal or generic levels in most groups. The male terminalia are diagnostic at specific level. The survey also allowed the discovery of, or confirmed, the reproductive habit of the included genera and provided information on the first-instar larva of 52 species, many of which larvae are described below for the first time. Characters of puparia which may have taxonomic value are discussed and illustrated.
