Basilia boardmani, the southeastern myotis bat fly, is a species of fly in the family Nycteribiidae.[1][2][3][4] The insect is parasitic, and lives by taking blood meals from its host, a species of bat. It differs from all other Basilia species by the presence of a finger-like process on the metanotum of the female (behind thoracic membrane).
