Polleniidae is a family of flies in the order Diptera. There are at least 6 genera and more than 190 described species placed definitively in Polleniidae, and other genera whose placement here is considered uncertain. [2] The largest genus is Pollenia , with close to 190 species of flies commonly called "cluster flies". [3] [4]
