The Calliphoridae (commonly known as blow flies, blow-flies, carrion flies, bluebottles, or greenbottles)[5] are a family of insects in the order Diptera, with almost 1,900 known species. The maggot larvae, often used as fishing bait, are known as gentles.[6] The family is known to be polyphyletic, but much remains disputed regarding proper treatment of the constituent taxa,[7] some of which are occasionally accorded family status (e.g., Bengaliidae and Helicoboscidae).[8]
The name blowfly comes from an older English term for meat that had eggs laid on it, which was said to be flyblown. The first known association of the term "blow" with flies appears in the plays of William Shakespeare: Love's Labour's Lost, The Tempest, and Antony and Cleopatra.[9][10][5][11]
