Muscidae (Diptera) records from Britain and Ireland to 1985

Biological Records Centre

Description

This is a small, historic dataset held at the BRC which contains records of the Muscidae. This group includes houseflies and their allies. These data are attributed to the former Sepsidae and Muscidae Recording Scheme, now ceased operation.

Geographic Description

This small dataset contains records from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Recording effort was strongest in south-east England and the Midlands. There are fewer records for Scotland and Wales and very few for Ireland.

Purpose

To collate existing data and encourage future recording. This species group has health implications for both humans and animals.

Data quality

Most records were checked and collated on recording cards by Eric Hillerton who is experienced in Muscidae recording and identification.

Methods

Conversion of the data from recording cards to electronic format took place at the BRC.
