Panops is a genus of small-headed flies. It is endemic to Australia and the Papua region of Indonesia. Males and females measure 8.0–12.5 mm and 9.5–14.5 mm, respectively.[1] Their larvae are thought to be endoparasites of spiders in the infraorder Mygalomorphae,[1][4] a trait shared by most other members of the subfamily Panopinae.[5]
