STRATIOMYIDAE – B. MERZ & L. PAPP

The stratiomyid fauna of Thailand has still been not well known, if we take the diversity of stratiomyids in the Oriental region into consideration. In his World catalog WOODLEY (2001) summarised 321 Oriental species, many more spp. awaiting description. In the CDO (JAMES 1975) 11 spp. of eight genera were listed from Thailand ( Microchrysa 2 spp., Ptecticus 1 sp., Sargus 1 sp., Oplodontha 1 sp., Clitellaria 1 sp., Rhaphioceroides 1 sp., Parastratiosphecomyia 2 spp., Ptilocera 2 spp.). Parastratiosphecomyia stratiosphecomyioides BRUNETTI, 1923 (p. 67, Bukit Besar, Patani) and Rhaphioceroides pendleburyi BRUNETTI, 1927 (p. 288, Khao Luang ) were described from that country.

In the World catalog of Stratiomyidae WOODLEY (2001) listed eight additional species, three of them were described from Thailand: Pachygaster piriventris ROZKOŠNÝ & KOVAC, 1998b (larvae in the original description collected in Thailand), Rosapha bicolor BIGOT, 1877 , Campeprosopa longispina ( BRUNETTI, 1913) , Hermetia illucens ( LINNAEUS, 1758) , Ptecticus erectus ROZKOŠNÝ & KOVAC 2000 (p. 104, Bang Khen), Ptecticus siamensis ROZKOŠNÝ & KOVAC, 1998 a (p. 71, Pak Chong), Ptecticus tricolor WULP in DE MEIJERE, 1904 and Sargus latipennis (BRUNETTI, 1923) . Most recently ROZKOŠNÝ & KOVAC (2005) described Ptecticus thailandicus (p. 3, Khao Yai NP, Khao Kheo ) and published first Thai records of P. aurifer (WALKER, 1854) , P. cingulatus LOEW, 1855 , P. kambangensis DE MEIJERE, 1914 , P. minimus ROZKOŠNÝ & KOVAC, 1997 and P. vulpianus (ENDERLEIN, 1914) .

The MNHG specimens below all were all identified by R. ROZKOŠNÝ. Below “new for Thailand ” means that the species was not reported in WOODLEY (2001) from Thailand.
