The floghera ({{langx|el|φλογέρα|floyéra}}, {{IPA|el|floˈʝeɾa|pron}}) is a type of flute used in Greek folk music. It is a simple end-blown bamboo flute without a fipple, which is played by directing a narrow air stream against its sharp, open upper end. It typically has seven finger holes.{{cite journal|last1=Papadelis|first1=George|last2=Papanikolaou|first2=George|title=An acoustical approach to the Greek flogera|journal=Journal of the Acoustical Society of America|volume=90|page=2352|year=1991|issue=4_Supplement |doi=10.1121/1.402163|doi-access=}}
