Haematopota is a genus of
flies in the
horse-fly family, Tabanidae.[4] Among the horse-flies, they are most commonly known as clegs. Many species have colorful, sinuously patterned eyes in life, a character that fades after death. The wings are typically patterned with spots of grey.[5] The genus is named from the Ancient Greek for blood-drinker: αἷμα, haîma, blood; πότης, pótës, drinker.[6] Some species are known to be vectors of livestock diseases.[7]
