Paykullia maculata is a species of fly in the subfamily Rhinophorinae[5][6] first described by Carl Fredrik Fallén in 1815.

[7] This species can be found in most of Europe (Austria, Great Britain, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Norway, Poland, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, Netherlands) [8][9] Habitats include wetlands, woodlands, parks and gardens.

The adults of this species are very variable, especially in size and in the pattern of wing markings.

The apical half of the wings show darkened veins and costal area.

[9] The larvae are intestinal parasites of Porcellio scaber and Oniscus asellus,[10] and woodlice from Protracheoniscus and Trachelipus genera.
