The work here reported concerns Tabanids taken in catches made during the period 1953-55, mainly in Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Tabanidae collected are 5 species of Pangoniinae and 12 species of Tabaninae. Tabanus iyoensis Shiraki has been prevalent along the mountain streams, where the working men are frequently attacked by the swarm of this horse-fly during the summer. On the other hand, T. mandarinus Schiner is very common along the foot of hills and the most violent bloodsucker of cattle. Tabanus rufldens, T. chrysurus and T. sapporoensis have been widely found in the hilly countries, while T. horvathi recorded in the plains only. Biting collections of T. iyoensis have shown that its main biting activity begins before sunset and reaches a distinct peak at dusk, thereafter the number taken diminish rapidly.
