Blood-meal analysis of Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) reveals a broad host range and new species records for Romania

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Culicoides biting midges are potential vectors of different pathogens. However, especially for eastern Europe, there is a lack of knowledge on the host-feeding patterns of this vector group. Therefore, this study aimed to identify Culicoides spp.

Ceratopogonidae

open access: yes, 2004
Family Ceratopogonidae The genus Culicoides is the only group of hematophagous ceratopogonids known from the Park. Although other ceratopogonids such as Atrichopogon spp., Dasyhelea oppressa Thompsen, Forcipomyia edmistoni Wirth and Spinelli, and Parabezzia sp. occur in the Park, none of these are known to feed on vertebrates.
