Las moscas
Two well-known genera are the common horse-flies, "Tabanus", named by Swedish taxonomist Carl Linnaeus in 1758, and the deer flies, "Chrysops", named by the German entomologist Johann Wilhelm Meigen in 1802. Meigen did pioneering research on flies and was the author of "Die Fliegen" ("The Flies"); he gave the name "Haematopota", meaning "blood-drinker", to another common genus of horse-flies.
