Deineches nudiventris is a species of hoverfly in the family Syrphidae. [3]
The Lonchopteridae are a family of small (2–5 mm), slender, yellow to brownish-black Diptera, occurring all over the world. Their common name refers to their pointed wings, which have a distinct venation. Many are parthenogenic; males are very rare, however, at least in North American species, and have a somewhat different venation than do the females.
The Brachyceran infraorder Xylophagomorpha is a small group that consists solely of the family Xylophagidae, which presently contains subfamilies that were sometimes considered to be two small related families. Other obsolete names for members of this family include Exeretonevridae and Heterostomidae.
Chrysopilus is common, worldwide genus of predatory snipe flies. There are approximately 300 species in the genus, including fossil members that are sometimes found in amber.
Rhinophorinae is a subfamily of flies (Diptera), commonly known as Woodlouse Flies, found in all zoogeographic regions except Oceania, but mainly in the Palaearctic and Afrotropical regions.
Bibionidae is a family of flies (Diptera) containing approximately 650–700 species worldwide. Adults are nectar feeders and emerge in numbers in spring. Because of the likelihood of adult flies being found in copula, they have earned colloquial names such as "love bugs" or "honeymoon flies".
Superfamily Tabanoidea are insects in the order Diptera.
Xylota is a Holarctic genus of hoverflies similar in structure to the related genera Chalcosyrphus and Brachypalpoides. As the larvae are saprophytic they're usually found in rotting wood. The adult flies are generally associated with woodland and woodland edges and can often be seen running over the upper sides of leaves. Unlike other syrphids the adults of many species rarely visit flowers preferring instead to gather pollen from leaf surfaces. There are over 100 described species of which 12 can be found in Europe. Seven species have been recorded in Britain. Identification of species has been difficult and identifiction by photographs is risky.
Spilomyia is a genus of hoverflies. Many species in the genus show Batesian mimicry of wasp models, including black and yellow patterns and modified antenna shape.
Cordyligaster is a genus of bristle flies in the family Tachinidae.
Zygobothria is a subgenus of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Rhabdochaeta is a genus of tephritid or fruit flies in the family Tephritidae.
Trupanea is a genus of tephritid or fruit flies in the family Tephritidae.
Chalcosyrphus is a genus of hoverflies in the subfamily Eristalinae. Many species exhibit some degree of mimicry of various sawflies and other hymenopterans and are often brightly coloured or metallic in hue. The adults are similar in structure and behavior to the related genus Xylota but differ in larval morphology. They can be found throughout Europe, Asia, and North America and seem to prefer damper, boggy habitats. The larvae are saproxylic feeders in rotten wood in these habitats.
The Milesiini is a large and diverse tribe of hoverflies. They mimic wasps or hornets.
Dioxyna is a genus of fruit flies in the family Tephritidae. There are about 10 described species in Dioxyna.
Diaphorinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae.
Cyphomyia is a genus of flies in the subfamily Clitellariinae.
Deineches is a genus of hoverflies from the family Syrphidae, in the order Diptera.
Xylota flavitarsis is a species of hoverfly in the family Syrphidae.
Cydistomyia is a genus of horse flies in the family Tabanidae.
