Mythenteles
Mythenteles is a genus of minute bee flies in the family Mythicomyiidae. The genus was established by Hall & Evenhuis in 1986 and contains species of very small size, consistent with the 'microbombyliid' designation. A 2011 world revision recognized eight new species and confirmed a disjunct Northern Hemisphere distribution pattern. The genus is taxonomically well-defined but biologically poorly known.
