These 12 species belong to the genus Metaparia:

Data sources: i = ITIS,[4] c = Catalogue of Life,[5] g = GBIF,[6] b = Bugguide.net[7]

Two additional species were identified by William T. Schultz in his PhD dissertation in 1970.[12] They were named "Metaparia mandibuloflexa", and "Metaparia prosopis", but as the dissertation is considered to be "unpublished" according to the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, these names are not considered valid.
