Typical muscoid flies of small to medium size, and yellow, brown, grey or black in colour. The distinguishing characteristic of this family is that vein A1 extends to the wing margin. This feature separates Anthomyiidae from the related families Muscidae and Fanniidae.

Anthomyiid flies are a relatively large and economically important family of Diptera. The larvae are primarily phytophagous (Botanophila, Delia, Chirosia, Pegomya, Phorbia) and some of them are important pests in agriculture, horticulture and forestry. They feed on different kinds of cereals and vegetables or on the cones of coniferous trees (Strobilomyia). The larvae of some species may be found in fungi (Botanophila, Pegomya), whilst others develop in decaying organic material (Hylemya urbica, Mycophaga testacea) or in the excrement of mammals or in birds' nests. A few larvae are parasitoids (Acyglossa) or cleptoparasites (Eustalomyia, Leucophora).

479 species are known from Europe (Michelsen 2007a); 248 are listed in the present checklist and of these 234 species have been recorded in the Czech Republic and 170 in Slovakia. The species Chirosia cepelaki Teschner, 1978, included in ECV1 (Komzáková 2006b), has been removed and it is listed in the family Scatophagidae as Delina nigrita (Fallén, 1819).

The basic manual for the identification of the species is Hennig's monograph in Lindner's Die Fliegen der palaearktischen Region (Hennig 1966-1976). Some later revisions may be found in e.g. Ackland (1970, 1993), Michelsen (1979, 1980a, b, 1988a, b, 1994, 2006, 2007b, c, d, 2009), Michelsen and Baéz (1985) and Ackland and Michelsen (1987). A recent key to the Palaearctic genera was prepared by Suwa and Darwas (1998). The nomenclature of the Fauna Europaea (Michelsen 2007a) is used in the present checklist.
