Stomoxyini fly fauna of the Khao Yai National Park, Thailand

ObjectiveTo determine species diversity, relative population abundance and diurnal activity of the Stomoxyini flies at the Khao Yai National Park.MethodsStomoxyini flies were collected bimonthly from February to June, 2012, using Vavoua traps. Species were identified based on morphological characteristics.ResultsA total of 712 individuals of 3 genera and 6 species were captured including Stomoxys calcitrans (13.3%), Stomoxys indicus (0.7%), Stomoxys pullus (44.4%), Stomoxys uruma (19.7%), Haematobosca sanguinolenta (19.2%) and Haematostoma austeni (2.7%).ConclusionsThis study provides information about Stomoxyini flies fauna at the Khao Yai National Park. These results may be useful for Stomoxyini fly control programs.
