Descrição

Flies are common insects found throughout Thailand, comprising both biting and non-biting species. Some of these species have significant implications for human and animal health, as they are capable of transmitting infectious diseases. Non-biting flies are known to process the mechanical transmission of pathogens via their body surfaces and are also considered nuisance pests. In contrast, biting flies can act as biological vectors, transmitting pathogens through their blood-feeding behavior. Understanding the spatial distribution of flies is essential for developing effective fly control strategies and reducing the risk of disease transmission. This dataset, which documents the distribution of flies in Thailand from 2004 to 2024, includes a total of 3,501 records spanning seven identified families: Calliphoridae, Ceratopogonidae, Muscidae, Psychodidae, Sarcophagidae, Simuliidae, and Tabanidae. Each record comprises information across three primary categories: (i) Taxonomy – including scientific name, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, specific epithet, scientific name authorship, and taxon rank; (ii) Collection details – including event ID, occurrence ID, event date, and sampling protocol; (iii) Geolocation data – including county, country code, locality, location ID, decimal latitude, decimal longitude, and geodetic datum. An overview of the dataset is presented through four summary tables. Table 1 displays the total number of collected fly specimens, organized by family. The most frequently recorded family is Simuliidae, which accounts for 52.16% of all entries. Table 2 presents the total number of collected flies classified by type—biting or non-biting—and further categorized by family. Biting flies represent the majority, comprising 65.67% of all specimens. Within this group, Simuliidae is the most prevalent family (79.43%), while Calliphoridae is the most dominant among non-biting flies (58.90%). Table 3 illustrates the geographic distribution of biting and non-biting flies across different regions of Thailand. Notably, the Central region is the only area where non-biting flies outnumber biting flies. Table 4 summarizes the number of specimens collected using different sampling methods, and the manual collection by forceps yields the highest number of specimens overall.
