We describe a new species of Tabanus (for Uruguay, the first in more than 90 years) based on females from the Department of Tacuarembó, Uruguay. Tabanus tacuaremboensis sp. n. is the 15th species of the genus Tabanus recorded from Uruguay. The species description is accompanied by illustrations of the diagnostic external and internal characters. In addition, for comparison with the new species, we provide photographs of the regional species of Tabanus whose distributions are still poorly known. In view of the lengthy hiatus since the last new tabanid species was described from Uruguay, we offer a brief discussion of the importance of new and further sampling in areas where the tabanofauna is still poorly known.
我们描述了一种新的 Tabanus 物种（乌拉圭 90 多年来的首例），其基于来自乌拉圭塔夸伦博省的雌性个体。Tabanus tacuaremboensis sp. n. 是乌拉圭记录的第 15 种 Tabanus 属物种。该物种描述附有诊断外部和内部特征的插图。此外，为了与新物种进行比较，我们还提供了分布情况仍知之甚少的 Tabanus 地区物种的照片。鉴于上次在乌拉圭描述新的虻科物种以来已经过去了很长时间，我们简要讨论了在虻类动物仍然知之甚少的地区进行新的和进一步采样的重要性。
