Sergentomyia bailyi ( Sinton, 1931)

Phlebotomus bailyi Sinton, 1931: 822 [male and female]. Type locality: Punjab, Kasauli, Simla Hills, India. Phlebotomus campestor Sinton, 1931: 822 (as var. of bailyi ) [female]. Type locality: Madras, Orissa, Bissamcuttak, India. Phlebotomus smithi Mitra & Roy, 1952: 187 [female]. Type locality: Pune, Hadapsar, India.

S. bailyi is a common species that has previously been collected in Thailand ( Quate 1962; Apiwathnasorn et al. 1989; Polseela et al. 2007). Unlike other species collected during this study, S. bailyi was only captured by Malaise trap during February and March. Previous records indicated that this species is present in Thailand during December ( Quate 1962), and future collections may reveal that it is active in KYNP during other times of the year.
