Euryomma is a genus of species of flies of the family Fanniidae. The genus was originally proposed by the entomologist Paul Stein in 1899. Although at that time most authorities placed them in the family Muscidae. The distribution of Euryomma is mainly Neotropical, on the whole restricted to the Americas, there is also one Nearctic species, the exception being of the very cosmopolitan E. peregrinum (Meigen, 1826) [1]

Description

With bare arista (as in Fannia), with the first pre-sutural dorsocentral bristle less than half as long as second. Males have a lower orbital bristle.[1]
