A study of the occurrence and species distribution of synanthropic flies species at Tasek Bera Ramsar Site was carried out during the Biodiversity Inventory Program from 10th to 12th May 2014 and 14th to 16th August 2014. A total of 716 synanthropic flies were collected and grouped according to thei...
