They account respectively for 100%, 25%, 66.7%, 60%, and 33% o f the number o f species occurring in Poland. In Warsaw there are two species of Gasterophilidae, one species o f Hypodermatidae, four species o f Hippoboscidae, and two species o f Nycteribiidae. N o flies o f the family Oestridae have been recorded in Warsaw. In Mazovia and in the suburbs o f Warsaw, cosmopolitan species predominate. Endoparasites of mammals are absent in Warsaw. In the centre o f the town, one species has been recorded, the adults o f which are ectoparasites o f birds. IN T R O D U C T IO N D a ta on the occurrence of the flies under study in the M azovian Lowland are presented in several contributions. In the M azovian Lowland nine species are know n, the larvae of which are endoparasites of m am m als, and nine species o f the families Hippoboscidae and Nycteribiidae, the adults o f which are exoparasites o f m am m als and birds. Seven species are listed by S z n a b l [10], two by S k u r a t o w i c z [9], one by D u d z i ń s k i [5], one by K r z e m i ń s k i [6] and the other species by D r a b e r - M o ń k o [2 4]. In this study, one species so far know n only from W arsaw has been recorded from M azovia. F rom W arsaw, nine species are known, including two species of Gastero philidae, one of Hypodermatidae, four of Hippoboscidae, and two species o f Nycteribiidae. O f the five species recorded by S z n a b l [10], two have not been recorded in recent study. The objective o f the paper is to present the species com position of Gasterophilidae, Hypodermatidae, Oestridae, Hippoboscidae, and Nycteribiidae o f the M azovian Low land and Warsaw, and also to carry out a zoogeographical and ecological analysis of these flies. The present paper is mostly based on materials collected in M azovia and W arsaw from different hosts, mainly m am m als and birds. Also n o n

The study area, methods, and underlying premisses of the work are described in detail elsewhere [1, 7, 8, 11]. SPECIES COMPOSITION In the Mazovian Lowland there have been recorded four species of the family Gasterophilidae, one of Hypodermatidae, four of Oestridae, and six species of Nycteribiidae, which account for 100%, 25%, 66.7%, 60%, and 33.3% respectively of the fauna of these flies known from Poland. In Warsaw there have been recorded two species of Gasterophilidae, one of Hypodermatidae, four of Hippoboscidae, and two species of Nycteribiidae, which respectively account for 50%, 100%, 66.7%, and 66.7% of these flies known from the Mazovian Lowland. In the suburbs of Warsaw, four species were caught, and in the centre of the town only one species (Table 2). ZOOGEOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS The Mazovian Lowland is mostly inhabited by cosmopolitan species and a smaller number of Euro-Siberian and European species, the other geographical elements being represented by one species each (Table 1). In the suburbs of Warsaw, the number of cosmopolitan species is smaller but their proportion is maintained at the same level. Also one Holarctic and one European species were caught there. In the centre of the town, only single specimens of an European species were caught. ECOLOGICAL ANALYSIS \ Most adults of these flies are associated with wooded habitats. They also predominate in the suburbs of Warsaw. Adult flies of the families Gasterophilidae, Hypodermatidae, and Oestridae are aphagous, while those of the families Hippoboscidae and Nycteribiidae are ectoparasites on mammals and birds (hemophages). Larval Gasterophilidae, Hypodermatidae, and Oestridae are endoparasites of mammals, while the larvae of the other families develop almost completely in female s body; they are born as pupae. In the Mazovian Lowland, there occur equal numbers of the two trophic groups: nine endoparasites of mammals and nine ectoparasites of mammals and birds. In the suburbs of Warsaw the endoparasites of mammals predominate. They are represented there by three species (75%). In the centre

Larvae of the flies o f the family Gasterophilidae and of some Hypodermatidae and Oestridae have been collected in masses from animals raised in the M azovian Lowland, bu t adults have not been recorded there.

Na Nizinie Mazowieckiej i w suburbium Warszawy przeważają pod względem liczby gatunki kosmopolityczne. W suburbium występują elementy: kosmopolityczny, holàrktyczny i europejski; w zieleni miejskiej Warszawy stwierdzono tylko jeden gatunek europejski. Muchówki, których larwy są endopasożytami ssaków, nie wnikają do zieleni miejskiej, natomiast w centrum Warszawy występuje jeden gatunek, którego formy dorosłe są pasożytami zewnętrznymi ptaków. Większość omawianych muchówek związana jest z terenami zadrzewionymi.
