It includes a number of the most familiar flies, such as the housefly , the Drosophila fruit fly and the Calliphoridae blowfly . The antenna biology antennae are short, usually 3 segmented, with a dorsal antenna biology arista . Their bodies are often highly setose, and the pattern of seta e is often taxonomically important. The larva e of muscomorphs in the sense the name is used here see below have a reduced head capsule, and the pupa is formed inside the exoskeleton of the last larva l instar exit from this puparium is via a circular line of weakness, and this pupal type is called cyclorrhaphous it is this feature which gives this group of flies their traditional name, Cyclorrhapha . No other insects have a life cycle that involves a puparium. Classification The name Cyclorrhapha ... Muscomorpha, or simply a rankless group within the Brachycera. In either case, Empidoidea is the sister taxon to Cyclorrhapha. In the present classification, as the Muscomorpha is used to refer to the sister taxon of the Empidoidea, the names Muscomorpha and Cyclorrhapha are effectively synonymous ...

There are two large families in this group, Syrphidae and Phoridae , and a number of smaller taxa. They are similar to most of the familiar Muscomorpha with one notable exception they do not possess a ptilinum , and therefore lack the prominent ptilinal suture on the face as in other Schizophora muscoid flies. They do still have a puparium with a circular emergence opening, but it is not as precisely ellipsoid in shape as is typical for other muscoids. The term was first used by Eduard Becher .

The larva e of asilomorphs are extremely diverse in habits, as well. Classification In most modern classifications, the infraorder Asilomorpha is not recognized, as it is paraphyletic the Empidoidea are the sister taxon to the Muscomorpha used here in the same sense as the traditional Cyclorrhapha , not following the Tree of Life Web Project system in this one instance . However, these modern classifications are non Linnaean, and while relatively easy to visualize on a phylogenetic tree diagram do not lend themselves to any classification that uses Linnaean ranks see Talk Brachycera discussion for details . There are also some classifications that place the Nemestrinoidea within the Tabanomorpha, though this is not widely accepted.

Unreferenced date January 2010 Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Orthorrhapha is a circumscriptional name which historically was used for an infraorder biology infraorder of Brachycera , one of the two suborder s into which the order biology order Diptera , the flies, are divided. As the group was paraphyletic , it has not been used in classifications in the last decade, and is effectively obsolete. However, many catalogs, checklists, and older works still contain the name. The taxa that used to be in the Orthorrhapha now comprise all of the infraorders in Brachycera excluding the Muscomorpha Cyclorrhapha .
