In general appearance Anthomyiids are very similar to Muscids or Fanniids. They are mostly small bristly grey to black flies, although some have striking black and grey patterns or a yellow abdomen.
But there are two characters which separate them under the microscope:
All anthomyids have a small setula on the hind first tarsomere, ventrally near base. This character is shared with only the muscid Drymeia. |
Most anthomyiids have a small group of downward-projecting hairs on the underside of the scutellum. |
