Carpophthoromyia
''Carpophthoromyia'' is a small genus of Afrotropical picture-winged flies (Tephritidae). They are usually darkly coloured and of medium size, and mostly develop in the fruit of various species of ''Drypetes'' (Putranjivaceae, formerly Euphorbiaceae). ''Carpophthoromyia'' is closely related to ''Perilampsis''. There are 17 recognised species: Species *'' Carpophthoromyia debeckeri'' De Meyer, 2006 *'' Carpophthoromyia dimidiata'' Bezzi, 1924 *'' Carpophthoromyia dividua'' De Meyer, 2006 *'' Carpophthoromyia flavofasciata'' De Meyer, 2006 *'' Carpophthoromyia interrupta'' De Meyer, 2006 *'' Carpophthoromyia litterata'' (Munro, 1933) *'' Carpophthoromyia nigribasis'' ( Enderlein, 1920) *'' Carpophthoromyia procera'' ( Enderlein, 1920) *'' Carpophthoromyia pseudotritea'' Bezzi, 1918 *'' Carpophthoromyia radulata'' De Meyer, 2006 *'' Carpophthoromyia schoutedeni'' De Meyer, 2006 *'' Carpophthoromyia scutellata'' (Walker, 1853) *'' Carpophthoromyia speciosa'' Hancock, 1984 *'' Carpo ...

Tephritidae
The Tephritidae are one of two fly families referred to as fruit flies, the other family being the Drosophilidae. The family Tephritidae does not include the biological model organisms of the genus ''Drosophila'' (in the family Drosophilidae), which is often called the "common fruit fly". Nearly 5,000 described species of tephritid fruit fly are categorized in almost 500 genera of the Tephritidae. Description, recategorization, and genetic analyses are constantly changing the taxonomy of this family. To distinguish them from the Drosophilidae, the Tephritidae are sometimes called peacock flies, in reference to their elaborate and colorful markings. The name comes from the Greek τεφρος, ''tephros'', meaning "ash grey". They are found in all the biogeographic realms.
