Non-mosquito Diptera of medical and veterinary importance, including both biting and non-biting species in the order Diptera, play a significant role in the transmission of disease pathogens, either as mechanical or biological vectors. In this review, a total of 3,492 records across seven families were identified, comprising 2,512 biting flies and 980 non-biting flies. Among the biting flies, the most frequently recorded family was Simuliidae, followed by Calliphoridae, Muscidae, Psychodidae, and Tabanidae. The majority of these records originated from northern Thailand and were previously published in various peer-reviewed journals.
