Trichopoda is a genus of tachinid flies, commonly known as the feather-legged flies or hairy-legged flies. They are small, brightly coloured flies that congregate on flowers, feeding on nectar. The halteres are covered with yellow scales and there is a fringe of flattened hairs on the hind legs. The larvae are parasitoids of true bugs in the order Hemiptera, including stink bugs in the family Pentatomidae and leaf-footed bugs and squash bugs in the family Coreidae. They are found in North and South America.
