Thirty six species of horse flies (
The
Samplings of horse flies in Serbia were carried out during 2004 and 2006 mostly in the area of the Fruška Gora national park. In this period, horse flies were collected at 8 localities. The Fruška Gora national park is an isolated, narrow, mainland mountain in the Pannonian plain. Most of the mountain lies in Vojvodina, Serbia except for a small section to the west which lies in Croatia. To the north, the mountain is bordered by the Danube. Lengthwise, it is approximately 80 km east to west and 15 km north to south (
All together 542 specimens were collected (
