Oestroidea is a superfamily of Calyptratae including the blow flies, bot flies, flesh flies, and their relatives.[1][2] It occurs worldwide and has about 15,000 described species.[3]
The superfamily includes the families:
Calliphoridae
Mesembrinellidae (formerly included in Calliphoridae)
Mystacinobiidae
Oestridae
Polleniidae (formerly included in Calliphoridae)
Rhiniidae (formerly included in Calliphoridae)
Sarcophagidae
Tachinidae
Ulurumyiidae[4]
