Parathalassiinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is part of an extended concept of the family, Dolichopodidae sensu lato, and forms a monophyletic group with Dolichopodidae sensu stricto. It was once placed provisionally in the subfamily Microphorinae as the tribe Parathalassiini.
According to a molecular phylogenetic analysis of the family Dolichopodidae by Germann et al. (2011), there is strong evidence for placing Parathalassiinae within Dolichopodidae sensu stricto.

The subfamily currently includes 12 genera:
- Amphithalassius Ulrich, 1991
- †Archichrysotus Negrobov, 1978
- Chimerothalassius Shamshev & Grootaert, 2003
- †Cretomicrophorus Negrobov, 1978
- †Electrophorella Cumming & Brooks, 2002
- Eothalassius Shamshev & Grootaert, 2005
- Microphorella Becker, 1909
- Neothalassius Brooks & Cumming, 2016
- Parathalassius Mik, 1891
- Plesiothalassius Ulrich, 1991
- †Retinitus Negrobov, 1978
- Thalassophorus Saigusa, 1986
