Abstract

Horse flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) are of medical and veterinary importance, as their blood-sucking feeding habit enables them to transmit several disease-causing agents. In Malaysia, the family Tabanidae consists of 120 species belonging to eight genera. The current study describes two new species (Chrysops idlani sp. nov. and Tabanus ekor sp. nov.) and presents new records for seven species: Tabanus fontinalisSchuurmans Stekhoven, 1926; Tabanus fuscifronsSchuurmans Stekhoven, 1926, Tabanus latifasciesSchuurmans Stekhoven, 1926, Tabanus megalops (Walker, 1854), Tabanus rhinargusPhilip, 1962, Tabanus salvazai (Surcouf, 1922), and Tabanus tristisWulp, 1881. Complete descriptions and illustrations are provided for the new species, and species variations for the new records are discussed. Male Tabanus latifasciesSchuurmans Stekhoven, 1926 and Tabanus perakiensis Ricardo, 1911 are thoroughly described herein.

摘要

厩螫蝇（双翅目：虻科）具有医学和兽医学重要性，因为它们吸食血液的习性使其能够传播多种致病因子。在马来西亚，虻科包含隶属于8个属的120个物种。当前研究描述了两个新物种（伊氏斑虻新种和尾虻新种），并给出了7个物种的新记录：1926年的斯氏斑虻、1926年的棕额斑虻、1926年的宽带斑虻、1854年的大眼斑虻、1962年的鼻斑虻、1922年的萨尔氏斑虻和1881年的忧郁斑虻。文中提供了新物种的完整描述和插图，并讨论了新记录物种的变异情况。本文还对1926年的宽带斑虻雄虫和1911年的霹雳斑虻进行了详细描述。
