Culicoides biting midges feeding behaviour as a key for understanding avian Haemoproteus transmission in Lithuania
16 Aug 2024
Abstract excerpt
Investigations of host feeding behaviour in haematophagous insects are critical to assess transmission routes of vector-borne diseases. Understanding if a certain species has ornithophilic or mammalophilic feeding behaviour can facilitate future studies focused on pathogens transmission to and from certain host species. Culicoides Latreille (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are vectors of several pathogens, which...
