Sampling Techniques for Bloodsucking Dipterans (Diptera: Culicidae, Simuliidae, Ceratopogonidae, Tabanidae)

Techniques for sampling and preserving bloodsucking dipterans: mosquitoes, blackflies, biting midges, and horseflies (Diptera: Culicidae, Simuliidae, Ceratopogonidae, Tabanidae) are reviewed. We partly developed these techniques and used them in ecological, faunistic, and taxonomic studies requiring...

Description
Summary:Techniques for sampling and preserving bloodsucking dipterans: mosquitoes, blackflies, biting midges, and horseflies (Diptera: Culicidae, Simuliidae, Ceratopogonidae, Tabanidae) are reviewed. We partly developed these techniques and used them in ecological, faunistic, and taxonomic studies requiring identification of specimens. Here, we describe the techniques used for adults, larvae, and pupae, both common to all the bloodsucking dipterans and specific to each group. For example, techniques for rearing larvae and pupae are described.
