Orthorrhapha is an infraorder of Brachycera, one of the two or three suborders into which the orderDiptera, the flies, are divided.

The majorityof authors, however, follow Brauer in dividing the order into two sections, Orthorrhapha and Cyclorrhapha, according to the manner in which the pupa-case splits to admit of the escape ofthe perfect insect.
The Diptera Cyclorrhapha on the other hand consist of the most highly specialized families, such as the Syrphida (hover-flies), Oestrida~ (bot and warble flies), and Muscidae (sensu latiore the house-fly and its allies, including tsetse-flies, flesh-flies, Tachininac, or flies the larvae of which are internal parasites of caterpillars, andc.).
Certain extremely aberrant Diptera, which, in consequence of the adoption of a parasitic mode of life, have undergone great structural modification, are further remarkable for their pecu]iar mode of reproduction, on account of which the families composing the group are often termed Pupipara.
