Milesia is a genus of very large hoverflies,[10] which mimic social wasps. For example, the European species Milesia crabroniformis is a convincing mimic of the hornet species Vespa crabro. Milesia are predominantly Palaeotropical in distribution almost entirely Oriental.[11]

The Larvae are of the short-tailed type, found in decaying heartwood of deciduous trees, including rot-holes.[12]
