Abstract
Hippoboscids, known as ‘louse flies’ or ‘keds’, are obligate and permanent bloodsucking flies that infest mammals and birds. The Hippoboscidae family includes more than 210 described species worldwide. In studies conducted in Türkiye, a total of eight Hippoboscid species have been reported: five species on mammalian hosts and three species on bird hosts. In this paper, a checklist of Hippoboscid flies (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) identified as a result of faunistic studies conducted in Türkiye is given.
Keywords: faunistic review, host-parasite associations, literature review.
