Influence of season and meteorological parameters on flight activity of Culicoides biting midges [PDF]

, 2011
Culicoides biting midges are vectors of internationally important arboviruses including bluetongue virus (BTV). The ecological constraints imposed by the small body size of these insects strongly influence the epidemiology of the diseases they can carry.

Biting midges (Ceratopogonidae) as vectors of kinetoplastid protists

This bachelor's thesis aims to summarize the latest findings on biting midges as vectors and hosts of kinetoplastids. Kinetoplastida are flagellated protozoans that live both freely and parasitically.
