4. Sheep head fly (sweat fly) - Hydrotaea This genus in the family Muscidae, and is an important transmitter of faecal pathogens in tropical climates (synonym: Ophyra)
5.
6. Sweat flies - Morellia Distribution is worldwide. The life cycle is of the Musca type. Adults swarm around livestock and sometimes humans, feeding on sweat and at mucous membranes, causing severe nuisance.
7. Eye flies - Hippelates and Siphunculina These genera are in the family Chloropidae of acalyptrate cyclorrhaphan flies. They are separate from the rest of the flies described but are included here for convenience.
10. Tsetse - Glossina Flies of the genus are known as tsetse. They are closely related to the family Muscidae, but normally given their own family name, Glossinidae. There are 23 species.
11.
12. Stable flies - Stomoxys Stomoxys calcitrans is known as the stable fly, or bitting house fly.
13.
14. Horn flies, buffalo flies and other stomoxyine flies - Haematobia and Haematobosca Haematobia Haematobosca

16. Blowflies – Calliphora, Lucilia, Phormia The blowflies are common and conspicuous by their size, buzzing noise and their metallic colouration of thorax and abdomen. The colours vary between species so that it is difficult to identify the genera by colour alone. Blowflies are important in forensic medicine to establish time of death of human corpses. A closely related genus is Protocalliphora in which the larvae are blood-sucking on nestling birds within the Neartic and Palearctic Regions. Protophormia terraenovea is an important bloefly in some areas.
19. Screwworm – Chrymsomya and Cochliomyia The larvae of species that are parasitic are called scre worms. This is because the larvae burrow head first into the host, the rings of spines on the larvae making them similar to woodworking screws.
24. Tumbu fly and floor maggot – Cordylobia and Auchmeromyia
25.
26. Nasal bot flies – Oestrus, Rhimoestrus and Cephalopina The larvae of all species are obligatory parasites, usually of ungulate mammals but occasionally of humans.
29. Warbles and stomach bots – Hypoderma and Gasterophilus They consist of few species. Warble flies are classified in the Oestridae family of bot flies; closely related is Oedemagena tarandi , the warble fly of reindeer. Stomach bot flies of horses are sometimes classified with the oestrids but are usually placed in the family Gasterophilidae.
32. The torsalo and rodent bots – Dermatobia and Cuterebra D. Hominis is also known as the human bot fly, berne or nuche. Despite the human association, it is most important as a common and serious infestation of cattle. Cuterebra is rarer as a medical or veterinary problem.
