Abstract
Despite the high number of species of this family, the biology of juveniles of most species is poorly understood. The postembryonic development is of the type hypermetamorphic, with parasitoid or hyperparasitoid larvae. Exceptions are the larvae of Heterotropinae, whose biology is similar to that of other Asiloidea, with predatory larvae that do not undergo hypermetamorphosis. Hosts of bee flies belong to different orders of insects, but mostly are among the holometabolous orders. The objective of this work is to research the biogeography, bioecology, habitat, geographic distribution, taxonomy, life cycle, phenology, parasitoidism (parasitism) and predatism of the Bombyliidae family (Insecta: Diptera). The research was carried out in studies related to quantitative aspects taxonomic and conceptual aspects. A literature search was carried out containing articles published from 1937 to 2021. The mini review was prepared in Goiânia, Goiás, from September to October 2021. The mini-review was prepared in Goiânia, Goiás, from September to October 2021, through, SEEK education, Periodicals CAPES, Google Academic, Bioline International, VADLO, Scopus, Web of Science, LILACS, Medline, LIS and Portal of Scientific Journals in Health Sciences.
