"Euryomma" is a small genus of 10 species of flies of the family Fanniidae. The genus was originally proposed by the entomologist Paul Stein in 1899. Although at that time most authorities placed them in the family Muscidae. The distribution of "Euryomma" is mainly Neotropical, on the whole restricted to the Americas, there is also one Neaartic species, the exception being of the very cosmopolitan "E. peregrinum" (Meigen, 1826) [cite book|author=Rozkosny, R.; Gregor, F.; Pont, A.C.|year=1997 |title=The European Fanniidae (Diptera)|pages=80 pp|publisher=Institute of Landscape Ecology]
