Dasyopa latifrons

Dasyopa latifrons is a species of frit fly in the family Chloropidae, first described by Loew in 1872. It belongs to the subfamily Oscinellinae and tribe Siphonellini. The genus Dasyopa is part of a diverse group of small flies commonly known as grass flies or frit flies, many of which are associated with grasses and sedges. The specific epithet 'latifrons' refers to the broad frons (frontal region of the head), a characteristic morphological feature of this species.
