<span class="mw-page-title-main">Anthomyiidae</span> Family of flies

The Anthomyiidae are a large and diverse family of Muscoidea flies. Most look rather like small houseflies. Most species are drab grey to black. Many Pegomya are yellow, and some members of the genera Anthomyia and Eutrichota are patterned in black-and-white or black-and-silvery-grey. Most are difficult to identify, apart from a few groups such as the kelp flies that are conspicuous on beaches.

Pegoplata, sometimes known as Nupedia, is a genus of flies within the family Anthomyiidae.

<i>Delia</i> (fly) Genus of flies

Delia flies are members of the Anthomyiidae family within the superfamily Muscoidae. The identification of different species of Delia can be very difficult for non-specialists as the diagnostic characteristics used for immature and/or female specimens may be inconsistent between species. Past taxonomic keys were not as comprehensive in their identification of Delia specimens; they were either too reliant on genetic characteristics, focused solely on a specific life stage, or were focused only on certain species. However current taxonomic keys aim to be more thorough by not only including morphological diagnostics for males, females, and immature specimens of various species, but also their genetic make-up or molecular barcode.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Limnophorini</span> Tribe of flies

The Limnophorini are a tribe of flies, belonging to the family Muscidae. Although the name-giving genus is Limnophora, this was actually described only after the more characteristic and easily recognized Lispe.

<i>Pegomya</i> Genus of flies

Pegomya is a genus of flies within the family Anthomyiidae. Some species are considered pests due to their leafmining larvae. Species include:

<i>Fannia</i> (fly) Genus of flies

Fannia is a very large genus of approximately 288 species of flies. The genus was originally described by the French entomologist Jean-Baptiste Robineau-Desvoidy in 1830. A number of species were formerly placed in the genus Musca.

Hydrotaea is a genus of insects in the housefly family, Muscidae. They occur in most regions of the world but are more populous in warmer climates. They are often found on feces in summer months, and are therefore generally found in close proximity to livestock. Among the 130 known species in this genus, one of the most commonly recognized is the dump fly.

<i>Thricops</i> Genus of flies

Thricops is a genus of true flies of the family Muscidae.

<i>Coenosia</i> Genus of flies

Coenosia is a very large genus of true flies of the family Muscidae. Coenosia are known as tiger flies since they are predators and hunt many kinds of insects and other invertebrates.
