| [ecology of the ceratopogonids of the alsace plain. iii. life-cycle of the culicoides (diptera, ceratopogonidae) from a fluvial breeding-place (author's transl)]. | in the east of france, culicoides clastrieri, c. odibilis, c. cubitalis, c. subfascipennis and c. musilator have 2 generations per year; a spring generation and a summer generation. a part of the summer population undergoes a aestivo-hibernation which is terminated around december. the possibility of a winter diapausa is evocated. | 1981 | 7325529 |
| urban forests as hubs for novel zoonosis: blood meal analysis, seasonal variation in culicoides (diptera: ceratopogonidae) vectors, and avian haemosporidians. | culicoides vectors can transmit a diverse array of parasites and are globally distributed. we studied feeding preferences and seasonal variation of culicoides (diptera: ceratopogonidae) vectors in an urban forest of germany to determine whether humans living nearby are readily exposed to vector-borne parasites from wild animals. we used a fragment of the mtdna coi gene to identify hosts from blood meals. we amplified a fragment of the mtdna cyt b to detect haemosporidian infections in culicoides ... | 2013 | 23981661 |
