Psathyromyia shannoni until recently presented several taxa: Phlebotomus limai, Ph. bigeniculatus, Ph. pifanoi, and Ph. microcephalus as its junior synonyms. In a previous study, the two former synonyms were resurrected and here a revision based on morphological characters of the taxonomic status of Ph. microcephalus and Ph. pifanoi is presented. Psathyromyia pifanoistat. rev.; comb. n. is resurrected from the synonymy of Pa. shannoni and its female is described. Phlebotomus microcephalus is removed from the synonymy of Pa. shannoni and proposed as a new synonym of Pa. bigeniculata. Lutzomyia cuzquenasyn. n., occurring in the Amazon region, is designated as a junior synonym of Pa. pifanoi. The geographical distributions of Pa. shannoni, Pa. bigeniculata, and Pa. pifanoi in the Americas are presented.
直到最近，香农粗腿蚋还包含几个分类单元：利迈白蛉、双膝白蛉、皮法诺白蛉和小头白蛉作为其次异名。在之前的一项研究中，前两个异名被重新启用，在此呈现基于小头白蛉和皮法诺白蛉分类地位形态特征的修订。皮法诺粗腿蚋（新地位；新组合）从香农粗腿蚋的异名中被重新启用，并描述了其雌性。小头白蛉从香农粗腿蚋的异名中移除，并被提议作为双膝粗腿蚋的新异名。库斯科罗蛉（新异名），分布于亚马逊地区，被指定为皮法诺粗腿蚋的次异名。呈现了香农粗腿蚋、双膝粗腿蚋和皮法诺粗腿蚋在美洲的地理分布。
