The occurence of Clogmia albipunctata (Diptera: Psychodidae: Psychodinae) has been confirmed in the territory of the Czech Republic since 2011. Although it is a non-hematophagous species of tropical origin, it presents a human health risk associated mainly with the mechanical transmission of various pathogens. In addition, C. albipunctata is one of the insects that cause accidental myiasis. The aim of this summary is to provide a comprehensive view of Clogmia albipunctata and accidental myiasis related health issues. Two case reports are presented: one of drain fly larvae as a putative parasite and the other of the first passive transfer of drain fly larvae to the human body in the Czech Republic.
Keywords: Clogmia albipunctata; epidemiology; myiasis; pseudomyiasis.
