摘要

Biting midges are key vectors that can transmit different pathogens to mammals and birds. In Ethiopia, two studies showed the diversity of Culicoides species in several districts based on morphological characters. For this, the same identification key was used for Afrotropical and Palaearctic Culicoides fauna. Consequently, results are incomplete and erroneous. It is misleading to state that a universal identification key is available.
