Se semblen morfològicament a les abelles. Els seus adults generalment s'alimenten de nèctar i pol·len, alguns són pol·linitzadors importants. Les larves generalment són parasitoides d'altres insectes.

Els bombílids comprenen centenars de gèneres, tanmateix el cicle vital de moltes de les seves espècies no està gaire dilucidat. La seva mida varia des molt petita (2 mm de llargada) a molt grossa per a un dípter (envergadura alar d'uns 40 mm). Algunes espècies tenen la seva probòscide adaptada per a libar plantes com les del gènere Lapeirousia que tenen els tubs florals molt llargs i estrets. Possiblement la seva similitud amb les abelles és aposemàtica, cosa que donaria als adults protecció davant els seus depredadors.
