Abstract excerpt
The emergence of culicoid-transmitted bluetongue and Schmallenberg viruses in several European countries demonstrated the ability of indigenous biting midge species to transmit pathogens. Entomologic research programmes identified members of the Obsoletus Group ( Culicoides subgenus Avaritia ) as keyplayers in disease epidemiology in Europe. However, morphological identification of potential vectors to species l...
