Black flies fauna in Indonesia has been studied extensively, however their ecology is still remaining unexplored. The study was carried out by collecting the larvae and pupae black flies in tea plantation area, Puncak Bogor. The collection sites were the streams located in 3 differents type of altitude, i.e. (1) the natural forest area (1200 m above the sea level) (P1); (2) the tea plantation area (900-1200 m asl) (P2); and (3) the housing area of the official tea plantation (900 m asl) (P3). The collection of black flies were done beweekly from July 2012 to April 2013. The result showed that 12 species of black flies were recorded which belong to one genus, Simulium s.l. and three subgenera (Nevermannia, Gomphostilbia and Simulium s.str). In P1, the area with high elevation (natural forest), it was found the most number of black flies species (11 species). In the streams around and in the tea plantation area (P2), it was found 7 species, and in P3, the official housing area, it was recorded 8 species. The analysis satistically showed that P1 was dominated by larvae and pupae of S. (S.) argyrocinctum, P2 by larvae and pupae of S. (N.) feuerborni, and P3 by S. (S.) argyrocinctum and S. (N.) feuerborni. The distribution of these species was different according to the elevation of the areas.
印度尼西亚的黑蝇区系已得到广泛研究，但它们的生态学仍未得到探索。本研究通过收集茶园地区（茂物高地）的幼虫和蛹黑蝇来进行。采集地点是位于 3 种不同海拔高度的溪流，即（1）原始森林区（海拔 1200 米以上）（P1）；（2）茶园区（海拔 900-1200 米）（P2）；和（3）茶园官方住宅区（海拔 900 米）（P3）。从 2012 年 7 月至 2013 年 4 月，每两周采集一次黑蝇。结果表明，共记录到 12 种黑蝇，属于一个属 Simulium s.l. 和三个亚属（Nevermannia、Gomphostilbia 和 Simulium s.str）。在海拔较高的 P1 地区（原始森林），发现的黑蝇种类最多（11 种）。在茶园周围和溪流中（P2），发现了 7 种，在 P3，官方住宅区，记录了 8 种。统计分析表明，P1 以 S.（S.）argyrocinctum 的幼虫和蛹为主，P2 以 S.（N.）feuerborni 的幼虫和蛹为主，P3 以 S.（S.）argyrocinctum 和 S.（N.）feuerborni 为主。这些物种的分布根据海拔高度的不同而有所不同。
