Abstract
    This study altogether includes 96 species of hover flies under 40genera of 3 subfamilies. Our study further includes 4 species of hoverflies that are Chrysotoxum quadrifasciatum Brunetti, 1923; Eristalinus (Eristalinus) tabanoides (Jaennicke, 1867); Lycastrisalbipes Walker, 1857 and Eumerus aurifrons (Wiedemann, 1824) which are reported for the first time from the state of West Bengal. Their taxonomic keys and detailed diagnostic accounts, as well as the distributional scenario, have been discussed here with latest updatation of nomenclature pattern.
