Distribution of flies of medical importance in Thailand: a dataset

Key Points

3,492 records of medically important flies were identified, highlighting their prevalence in Thailand.
Biting flies comprised 2,512 records, with Simuliidae being the most frequently recorded family.
These records primarily came from northern Thailand, emphasizing regional biodiversity.
The dataset contributes to understanding vectors of disease pathogens and their public health implications.

Abstract

Non-mosquito Diptera of medical and veterinary importance, including both biting and non-biting species in the order Diptera, play a significant role in the transmission of disease pathogens, either as mechanical or biological vectors. In this review, a total of 3,492 records across seven families were identified, comprising 2,512 biting flies and 980 non-biting flies. Among the biting flies, the most frequently recorded family was Simuliidae, followed by Calliphoridae, Muscidae, Psychodidae, and Tabanidae. The majority of these records originated from northern Thailand and were previously published in various peer-reviewed journals.
