Senotainia is a genus of satellite flies in the family Sarcophagidae. There are more than 70 described species in Senotainia.
These 76 species belong to the genus Senotainia:
Sarcophagidae are a family of flies commonly known as flesh flies. They differ from most flies in that they are ovoviviparous, opportunistically depositing hatched or hatching maggots instead of eggs on carrion, dung, decaying material, or open wounds of mammals, hence their common name. Some flesh fly larvae are internal parasites of other insects such as Orthoptera, and some, in particular the Miltogramminae, are kleptoparasites of solitary Hymenoptera. The adults mostly feed on fluids from animal bodies, nectar, sweet foods, fluids from animal waste and other organic substances. Juveniles need protein to develop and may be laid on carrion, dung or sweet plant foods.
Sarcophaga is a genus of true flies and the type genus of the flesh-fly family (Sarcophagidae). The members of this cosmopolitan genus are frequently known as common flesh flies.
The Miltogramminae are a subfamily of the family Sarcophagidae. They are kleptoparasites of solitary bees and solitary wasps.
Leschenaultia is a genus of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Winthemia is a genus of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Gonia is a genus of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Voriini is a tribe of flies in the family Tachinidae. More junior homonyms exist of Wagneria than any other animal genus name.
Dexiinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Dexiini is a tribe of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Exoristinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Tachinidae. Most species are parasitoids of caterpillars.
Eryciini is a tribe of flies in the family Tachinidae
Goniini is a tribe of parasitic flies in the family Tachinidae. Members of Goniini are distinguished from other Tachinidae by laying small "microtype" eggs that hatch only after being ingested by a host.
Tachininae is a subfamily of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Leskiini is a tribe of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Polideini is a tribe of bristle flies in the family Tachinidae. The tribe is unusual for its diversity of hosts, including spiders, scorpions, and centipedes in addition to the usual insect larvae.
