Blephariceromorpha is an infraorder of Nematoceran flies, including three families associated with fast-flowing, high mountain streams, where the larvae can be found.

One recent classification based largely on fossils splits this group into two infraorders, and removes the Nymphomyiidae to its own suborder, but this has not gained wide acceptance.
