Biting midges (Ceratopogonidae)
1993The Ceratopogonidae form a family of small nematocerous flies, usually less than 3 or 4 mm in length. They are closely related to the Chironomidae, the non-biting midges, but can be distinguished from them by the presence of biting mouthparts in the female, the wing venation and by the short fore legs (Fig. 7.1). They are best known as ′biting midges′ (

PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS IN THE FORCIPOMYIINAE (DIPTERA: CERATOPOGONIDAE)
The Canadian Entomologist, 1971AbstractThe phylogenetic relationships between species groups and subgenera in the Forcipomyiinae are presented for the first time, from a consideration primarily of male genitalic structures and comparative morphology of all stages. A dendrogram showing the phylogenetic relationships within the subfamily and a figure showing the evolutionary trends in

BITING MIDGES ( Ceratopogonidae )
2002Biting midges are minute blood-sucking flies. They are commonly known as “no-see-ums” owing to their small size and the fact that they often go unnoticed despite the discomforting bites, which they cause. There are 78 genera and 4000 described species of biting midges. Ceratopogonid larvae are typically long and slender, ranging from 2─5 mm in length

Culicoides variipennis (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) Complex in California
Journal of Medical Entomology, 1995Genetic relationships were examined among 24 collections, representing 23 populations of Culicoides variipennis (Coquillett) using isozyme electrophoresis of 11 protein encoding loci. The populations were collected from alkaline or fresh water larval habitats in California. Distance analysis demonstrated that C. v. occidentalis Wirth and Jones and C. v.
