More Information about: epistoma
Term epistoma
Explanation Quote from Manual of Nearctic Diptera:
The lower facial margin is sometimes called the epistoma, but this term should be avoided because it is ambiguous (Crampton 1942, pp. 16-17).

Reference:
Crampton, G.C., 1942. A guide to the insects of Connecticut. Part VI. THe Diptera or true flies of Connecticut. First Fassicle. The external morphology of the Diptera. - Bulletin of the Connecticut State Beological and Natiral History Survey 64: 10-165. (Reprint 1966).
