Stratiomys is a genus of flies in the family Stratiomyidae. [23]
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 detritivorous. 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.
Microchrysa is a genus of soldierfly belonging to the family Stratiomyidae. There has been some confusion with the synonym Chrysomyia of Macquart, 1834, causing some members of the genus Chrysomya of Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 to be placed erroneously in this genus.
Cylindromyia is a genus of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Peleteria is a widespread genus of flies in the family Tachinidae.
Otitinae is the name of a subfamily of flies in the family Ulidiidae. It was formerly the Otitidae. Like the Ulidiinae, 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.
Oxycera is a genus of flies in the family Stratiomyidae.
Stratiomyinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Stratiomyidae.
Hermetia is a genus of flies of the family Stratiomyidae.
Atherix is a genus of 'ibis flies' belonging to the family Athericidae, a small family very similar to the Rhagionidae. Species within this genus are present in most of Europe and also in the Nearctic realm.
Cyphomyia is a genus of flies in the subfamily Clitellariinae.
Adoxomyia is a genus of soldier flies in the family Stratiomyidae.
Psellidotus is a genus of flies in the family Stratiomyidae.
