Delia platura, the seedling fly or grey seedling fly, is a species of brachycerid dipteraninsect in the Anthomyiidae family.

This fly is a crop pest because its larvae feed not only on decomposing organic matter, but also attack germinating seeds and young seedlings. It is a highly polyphagous species capable of destroying the seedlings of many cultivated plants, both in market gardening and field crops.
