The Luciliinae are a subfamily of Calliphoridae, or blow flies. According to Whitworth,[1] the distinguishing characteristics of this subfamily are its shining green, blue, or bronze thorax and abdomen, suprasquamal ridge with a setae cluster, and a bare lower calypter. When measuring the head to frons ratios in females, the frons is not narrowest at the vertex as in most of the female Calliphoridae.[1]:ā€Š718ā€Š This subfamily includes one genus: Lucilia.
