Streblidae is the family of bloodsucking flies, mostly tropical and subtropical, that are obligate ectoparasites of bats. A high number of these fly species are found in the Atlantic Forest, but there is little information about their quantitative descriptors. In this paper we describe the prevalence, mean intensity, and infracommunities of streblid bat flies on phyllostomid bats from the Ilha do Cardoso State Park. Silvia Fazzolari-Correa conducted surveys during her Ph. D. thesis research, from July 1990 to July 1991 in distinct places of the island, she collected 454 flies of 30 species from 132 bats of 15 species. From those, we found 44 host-parasite associations and 31 infracommunities that suffered variations due to accidental associations or contaminations. With our results, the number of Streblidae species increased to 36 in Sao Paulo State.
