Carpophthoromyia

Carpophthoromyia is a small Afrotropical genus of picture-winged flies (Tephritidae).[2] They are usually darkly coloured and of medium size, and mostly develop in the fruit of various species of Drypetes (Putranjivaceae, formerly Euphorbiaceae).[2] Carpophthoromyia is closely related to Perilampsis.
