Sepsisoma is a genus of flies in the family Richardiidae. There are about 13 described species in Sepsisoma. [1] [2] [3]
These 13 species belong to the genus Sepsisoma:
The Ulidiidae or picture-winged flies are a large and diverse cosmopolitan family of flies (Diptera), and as in related families, most species are herbivorous or detritivore. They are often known as picture-winged flies, along with members of other families in the superfamily Tephritoidea that have patterns of bands or spots on the wings. Some species share with the Tephritidae an unusual elongated posteroapical projection of the anal cell in the wing, but can be differentiated by the smoothly curving subcostal vein. Two species, Tetanops myopaeformis and Euxesta stigmatias, are agricultural pests.
The Dryomyzidae are a small family of flies ranging from 4–18 mm long, with prominent bristles, and yellow to brown or rust-yellow coloring. The wings are very large. The subcosta is complete and well separated from vein 1. Larvae feed on decaying organic matter - carrion, dung, and fungi. The prelambrum protrudes from the oral cavity. Vibrissae are absent and the postvertical bristles are divergent.
Rhagoletis is a genus of tephritid fruit flies with about 70 species.
The Richardiidae are a family of Diptera in the superfamily Tephritoidea.
The Ulidiinae are a subfamily of flies in the family Ulidiidae. Like the Otitinae, most species are herbivorous or saprophagous. Most species share with the Tephritidae an unusual elongated projection of the anal cell in the wing, but can be differentiated by the smoothly curving subcostal vein. Most are dull gray to shiny brown or black flies with vein R1 setulose or, in a few cases, bare.
Platystomatinae is a subfamily of flies (Diptera) in the family Platystomatidae that includes 80 genera, the largest subfamily with at last estimate, c. 900 species globally.
Pherbellia is a genus of flies in the family Sciomyzidae, the marsh flies or snail-killing flies. They occur throughout the world, except for the Subantarctic region.
Tetanocerini is a tribe of flies in the family Sciomyzidae. There are at least 120 described species in the tribe.
Tetanocera is a genus of marsh flies, insects in the family Sciomyzidae. There are at least 50 described species in Tetanocera.
Sylvicola is a genus of wood gnats in the family Anisopodidae. There are more than 80 described species in Sylvicola.
Dimecoenia is a genus of shore flies in the family Ephydridae. There are about 18 described species in Dimecoenia.
Paralimna is a genus of shore flies. There are at least 90 described species in Paralimna.
Amauromyza is a genus of leaf miner flies in the family Agromyzidae. There are more than 60 described species in Amauromyza.
Curtonotum is a genus of flies in the family Curtonotidae. There are more than 50 described species in Curtonotum.
Odontomera is a genus of flies in the family Richardiidae. There are about 19 described species in Odontomera.
Pyrgota is a genus of flies in the family Pyrgotidae. There are about 10 described species in Pyrgota.
Pholeomyia is a genus of freeloader flies in the family Milichiidae. There are more than 30 described species in Pholeomyia.
Glyphidops is a genus of cactus flies in the family Neriidae. There are at least 20 described species in Glyphidops.
Sciomyzinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Sciomyzidae.
