Faunistic studies on biting midges conducted mostly in South Norway between 2006 and 2020, as well as a revision of available literature, resulted in a new comprehensive checklist of the species known from mainland Norway. In total, 21 genera and 216 species of Ceratopogonidae have been registered, of which as many as 165 are with Linnaean names. For the remaining 51 species interim names are given as no existing nominal species could be assigned. Four genera, namely Ceratoculicoides Wirth & Ratanaworabhan, 1971, Monohelea Kieffer, 1917b, Phaenobezzia Haeselbarth, 1965 and Probezzia Kieffer, 1906, and 58 species are reported from Norway for the first time. Records of nine biting midge species previously mentioned from the country turned out to be uncertain and are currently treated as doubtful. In Norway, the most species-rich genera of Ceratopogonidae are: Culicoides Latreille, 1809 with 34, Forcipomyia Meigen, 1818 with 29, Dasyhelea Kieffer, 1911a with 22, Atrichopogon Kieffer, 1906 with 16, Bezzia Kieffer, 1899 with 15, and Palpomyia Meigen, 1818 with 15 reported species.

Introduction

Ceratopogonidae is a family of nematocerous ies,

distributed nearly worldwide, and represented by

species with very diverse morphology, biology,

and ecology. They are present in various habitats

ranging from coastal areas to high mountains

(up to 4.651 m a.s.l.) (Borkent & Spinelli 2007,

Tapia et al. 2018, Borkent & Dominiak 2020), are

common in tropics, but have been reported also

from cold regions, such as subantarctic islands

and within 150 km of permanent polar ice in

Canada (Gressit 1962, Downes 1978, Sublette

& Wirth 1980, Borkent & Grogan 1995). The

immatures of ceratopogonids live in a wide

range of aquatic, semiaquatic and true terrestrial

habitats. Their larvae inhabit puddles, lakes,

springs, rivers, swamps, peat bogs, phytotelmata

and moist soil. Some species breed in sap oozing

from trees, rotting plants and ephemeral rock

pools, while others are reported from saline soil

or water of inland saline habitats and intertidal

zone of seas (Waugh & Wirth 1976, Mullen &

Hribar 1988, Szadziewski et al. 1997, Borkent

& Dominiak 2020). Larvae feed on algae, fungi,

and detritus, but some species are also predators

and prey on protozoans, rotifers, nematodes,

annelids, caddisy-, chironomid-, mosquito-,

and other biting midge larvae (Mullen & Hribar

1988, Szadziewski et al. 1997). Feeding habits

of adults are diverse. Males of all biting midge

species feed solely on sugar and water from nectar

and honeydew. The same applies to females of all

Dasyhelea Kieer, 1911a and some Forcipomyia

Meigen, 1818. Females of other biting midges

sometimes supplement their diet with nectar,

but normally they need a protein-rich meal for

egg maturation (Szadziewski et al. 1997). Few

species are known to be pollinivorous and obtain

protein from pollen. All members of the subfamily

Ceratopogoninae, except for the genus Culicoides

Latreille, 1809 are predators on small, soft-

bodied insects and prey mainly on chironomids,

ceratopogonids and mayies (Downes 1978).

Species of the genus Atrichopogon Kieer, 1906

and some species of Forcipomyia are ectoparasitic

on larger insects, and take hemolymph from

butteries, dragonies, beetles, and net-winged

insects. Females of Austroconops Wirth and

Lee, 1958, Leptoconops Skuse, 1889, Culicoides

and Forcipomyia (Lasiohelea Kieer, 1921a)

suck vertebrate blood, mainly of mammals and

birds, but there are also species that are parasites

on amphibians and reptiles (Debenham 1989,

Szadziewski et al. 1997, Borkent & Dominiak

2020). Bloodsucking ceratopogonids are annoying

biters of humans and other vertebrates, and are

often considered serious pests, especially in

coastal habitats and montane regions (Wirth 1952,

Wirth & Hubert 1989, Szadziewski et al. 1997,

Borkent & Dominiak 2020). Haematophagous

biting midges are reported as vectors of 66 viruses,

15 species of parasitic protozoans and 26 species

of larial nematodes (Borkent & Spinelli 2007),

e.g., bluetongue and Akabane viruses, protozoans

causing avian malaria and leishmaniasis, and

Onchocerca lariae (Linley 1985, Wirth & Hubert

1989, Dougall et al. 2011).

Worldwide, 6.276 extant species and 121

extant genera of biting midges are known

(Borkent & Dominiak 2020, Borkent et al. 2022)

with about 590 species within 27 genera occurring

in Europe (Szadziewski et al. 2013, Szadziewski

& Dominiak 2016, Borkent & Dominiak 2020,

Borkent et al. 2022). The best studied European

countries are Germany (256 spp.), France (241

spp.), Poland (220 spp.), Estonia (184 spp.)

and Czech Republic (175 spp.) (Szadziewski

et al. 2013, Szadziewski & Dominiak 2016).

Determining how many Ceratopogonidae species

that are reported from Norway is not easy, since

the numbers provided by various authors are

inconsistent. Dierences can be due to overlooked

records from older publications, also causing

some species to be reported as new to Norway

more than once. According to the most recent

publications (e.g. Stur & Borkent 2014), the family

is represented by approximately 120 species in the

Norwegian fauna, a number of species similar to

those known from Sweden and Finland (Huldén

& Huldén 2014, Salmela et al. 2015, Strandberg

2016, Dominiak et al. 2020).

The literature on Ceratopogonidae from

Norway is rather rich, and the rst note on biting

midges can be found in “Resa genom Sweriges

och Norriges Lappmarker” by Zetterstedt

(1822, p. 41). Another brief observation of a

“Ceratopogon” specimen from Finnmark region

was published just a few years later by Christy

(1837, p. 464). Further publications from the 19th

and 20th centuries provide more scientic content,

including descriptions of species new to science

and more detailed faunistic data. A compilation

of the literature on Norwegian Diptera up to the

year 1940 (Soot-Ryen 1943b) proved to be very

useful when looking for older publications where

Ceratopogonidae were mentioned. A list of the

scientic literature we were able to nd (except

catalogs, databases, checklists) that report species

from Norway is shown in Table 1. The most

important articles dealing with the diversity of

Norwegian biting midges are those by Hagan et

al. (2000) with 56 species records, including 44

species new to Norway and by Stur & Borkent

(2014) with 54 recorded morphospecies, including

16 species new to Norway. It is noteworthy that

many, or in some cases even all Ceratopogonidae

records from Zetterstedt (1855), Siebke (1877),

Soot-Ryen (1943a), and Thunes et al. (2003,

2004, 2008) are just repetitions of older records

(Table 1). For example, all records in Thunes et

al. 2003, 2004, and most probably also the ones

in Thunes et al. 2008, were published earlier by

Hagan et al. (2000). The dates and localities of

the material in Thunes et al. (2008, pp. 218–219)

(collected between 19 June and 17 July, 1999, from

pine canopies in Sigdal) correspond with those

published in Hagan et al. (2000, pp. 469–471),

even though there are some dierences between

the recorded species and specimen numbers.

Information about the presence of particular

biting midge species in Norway can be found also

in printed catalogs and checklists, e.g. Havelka

1978, Remm 1988, Krzywiński 1996 (tribe

Palpomyiini Enderlein, 1936), Szadziewski et al.

1997, Mathieu et al. 2012 (genus Culicoides), as

well as in online databases (e.g. Szadziewski et al.

2013, Artsdatabanken 2015).

A lot has changed in the taxonomy of

Ceratopogonidae since Carl von Linné described

the rst biting midge species, Culicoides pulicaris

(Linnaeus, 1758), originally placed in the genus

Culex Linnaeus, 1758. Thenceforth, the most

proliferous European biting midge workers,

like J.W. Meigen, J. Winnertz, J.J. Kieer, M.

Goetghebuer, J. Clastrier and H. Remm, have

described numerous Ceratopogonidae as new to

science. However, many of these new names later

appeared to be synonyms of previously described

taxa. An extreme case is J.J. Kieer who authored

nearly twice as many names currently regarded

as junior synonyms compared to valid names

(Borkent & Dominiak 2020). Although the old

descriptions and records of biting midges are of

huge value, it is not surprising that our current

knowledge about the family is much deeper and

more accurate than it was in the 18th, 19th or at the

beginning of 20th century. We consider most of the

information on species occurrences in Norway

found in older literature as doubtful, or at least less

reliable until voucher specimens from the original

collections are re-examined. This concerns mostly

minute species, which are dicult to identify, and

species treated as junior synonyms in addition to

cases where the authors used synonymic names

in other combinations than they are currently

accepted. Considering that thorough studies of old

museum material was far beyond the scope of this

paper, we have added short discussions on these

issues as a comment under the treatment of the

relevant species in the below faunistic overview.

Material and methods

The adult and immature biting midges were

collected using Malaise traps, kick nets and sweep

nets or were hand-picked from dead blister beetles

(bait trap) during surveys conducted in Agder

(2019–2020), Innlandet (2008, 2015, 2016),

Trøndelag (2006, 2010, 2013–2015, 2017–2020),

Vestfold and Telemark (2020), and Viken (2020)

counties and in Finnmark region (2010). The

specimens examined were cleared in 10% KOH

and subsequently slide mounted in Euparal or a

mixture of Canada balsam and orange oil. The

remaining material is stored in 80% ethanol for

further studies. All specimens from our study

are deposited in the NTNU University Museum

insect collection, Trondheim, Norway (Table

2). Additionally, some specimens collected and

identied by Jonas Strandberg (Strandberg 2016)

deposited at the Swedish Museum of Natural

History (NHRS), Department of Entomology,

were re-examined.

Tissue (one or two legs) from selected

specimens were sampled and sent to the Canadian

Centre for DNA Barcoding (CCDB), University

of Guelph, Canada for molecular analyses. Upon

DNA extraction using standard protocols, the

barcode fragment of cytochrome c oxidase subunit

1 (COI) was amplied using the C_LepFolF and

C_LepFolR primer cocktail (Hernández-Triana

et al. 2014) and bi-directionally sequenced

using Sanger technology. DNA barcodes and

associated metadata are available in the dataset

“DS-NOCER, Norwegian Ceratopogonidae” in

the Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD) and the

DOI for the dataset is: dx.doi.org/10.5883/DS-

NOCER. Genbank accession numbers of the COI

sequences are ON341717 - ON342617.

For each species, in the paragraph “Material

examined”, the county, coordinates, date,

specimen code for the barcoded or museum

ID number for the not-barcoded specimens are

given. More information about the records can be

retrieved via the published BOLD dataset.

Information about geographical distribution of

species is based mainly on data from the Fauna

Europaea database (Szadziewski et al. 2013,

accessed 19 March 2022).

Distribution data from BOLD was assembled

on 05 December 2021. Besides of Norway,

all other countries of occurrence are listed in

alphabetical order.

The classication of biting midges follows

Dominiak & Stur: Norwegian biting midges (Ceratopogonidae)

Borkent & Dominiak (2020) and Borkent et al.

(2022). In a few cases, for the genera Atrichopogon

Kieer, 1906, Dasyhelea Kieer, 1911a and

Bezzia Kieer, 1899, a subgeneric division

traditionally used in Europe (see e.g. Remm

1988, Szadziewski et al. 1996, Dominiak 2012) is

mentioned in the comments. Hopefully, this will

make it easier for the readers to navigate among

various species groups of Ceratopogonidae, search

for identication keys and taxonomic literature.

Several species mentioned in older papers

have been synonymized. We follow the currently

accepted synonymizations in Borkent &

Dominiak (2020) and the records in Table 1 are

listed by their senior synonyms (see comments

under relevant species). The junior synonyms are

as follows: Atrichopogon fuscipes (Zetterstedt,

1850) (= A. fuscus (Meigen, 1804)), Bezzia

circumdata (Stæger, 1839) (= B. annulipes

(Meigen, 1830)), Brachypogon lapiae (Clastrier,

1961) (= B. incompletus (Kieer, 1925b)),

Ceratopogon crassinervis (Goetghebuer, 1920)

(= C. naccinervis Borkent, in Borkent & Wirth

1997), Culicoides arcuatus (Winnertz, 1852) (=

C. pictipennis (Stæger, 1839)), C. heliophilus

Kieer, 1924a (= C. newsteadi Austen, 1921), C.

pictidorsum Kieer, 1924a (= C. circumscriptus

Kieer, 1918), C. salicornis Kieer, 1924a (=

C. circumscriptus Kieer, 1918), Dasyhelea

luteiventris Goetghebuer, 1934 (= D. bilobata

Kieer, 1915), D. obscura (Winnertz, 1852) (= D.

avifrons (Guérin-Méneville, 1833)), D. scutellata

(Meigen, 1830) (= D. corinneae Gosseries, 1991),

Palpomyia hortulana (Meigen, 1818) (= P. avipes

(Meigen, 1804)), P. laticollis Goetghebuer,

1922 (= P. tibialis (Meigen, 1818)), P. rupecta

(Winnertz, 1852) (= P. armipes (Meigen, 1838)),

Schizohelea xanthopeza (Clastrier, 1963) (= S.

leucopeza (Meigen, 1804)), Serromyia europaea

Clastrier, 1963 (= S. ledicola Kieer, 1925b), and

Sphaeromias procerus (Zetterstedt, 1855) (= S.

fasciatus (Meigen, 1804)).

Immature biting midges (larvae, pupae) were

associated with identied adult specimens by

DNA barcodes belonging to the same Barcode

Index Number (BIN) in BOLD.

Both, previously published and new records of

Ceratopogonidae species are compiled in Table 1

(genera and species given in alphabetical order).

Old literature records provided by Zetterstedt

(1822, p. 141), Christy (1837, p. 464) and Storm

(1907, p. 10), where biting midges are identied

only to generic level or locality data are not

precise, are not included in Table 1.

Results

Comments on previous records of biting midges

from Norway

A study of the literature on biting midges from

Norway and re-examination of specimens from

Finnmark region housed in the NTNU collection,

have led us to some interesting ndings and

conclusions. Firstly, loci typici of three of

Kieer’s species are in Germany, not in Norway.

This concerns Culicoides salicola Kieer,

1924a, C. pictidorsum Kieer, 1924a (both are

junior synonyms of C. circumscriptus Kieer,

1918) and C. halophilus Kieer, 1924a (junior

synonym of C. newsteadi Austen, 1921) which

were mistakenly stated as described from Norway

(Kieer 1924a). Their locus typicus, misspelled

as “Oldesbac” and “Oldesloc”, respectively,

refers to Bad Oldesloe in Schleswig-Holstein in

northern Germany (see Thienemann 1926, Mehl

1996, Dau & Martin 2013). Thus, these three old

records from Norway, and subsequent records of

C. circumscriptus and C. newsteadi, are treated by

us as invalid. Secondly, the occurrence of various

other species from Norway is erroneous because

records have been based on incorrectly identied

specimens or wrong interpretation of species. We

thus regard the following literature records as

invalid and do not include them in Table 1:

Atrichopogon fuscus (Meigen, 1804), as A.

fuscipes (Zetterstedt, 1850) in Zetterstedt (1850).

Atrichopogon fuscipes, currently a junior synonym

of A. fuscus, was described from specimens from

Denmark and Norway. However, Szadziewski

(1986, p. 30) proved that the specimen from

Thynås in Norway (a paralectotype of A. fuscus)

belongs to A. griseolus (Zetterstedt, 1855).

Zetterstedt’s record of A. fuscipes was repeated by

Siebke (1877) and Soot-Ryen (1943a).

Atrichopogon hirtidorsum Remm, 1961b, in

Stur & Borkent (2014). The female specimens

from Finnmark region reported in Stur & Borkent

(2014) have been re-examined and they are re-

identied as A. cf. hirtidorsum. They belong

to BIN BOLD:ABZ8851, members of which

are characterized by presence of hair partially

covering eyes in male, and well-visible neck

of seminal capsule in female. According to the

original Remm (1961b) description, eyes in the

male of A. hirtidorsum are naked and female

seminal capsule is without neck.

Atrichopogon infuscus Goetghebuer, 1929, in

Stur & Borkent (2014). We have re-examined the

male specimen from Finnmark region identied as

A. infuscus by Stur & Borkent (2014) and without

any doubts it belongs to A. longicalcar Remm,

1961b.

Atrichopogon minutus (Meigen, 1830), in Stur

& Borkent (2014). The male and female specimens

from Finnmark region mentioned in Stur &

Borkent (2014) have been re-examined and are

identied as A. cf. minutus. Although, in general

the specimens t the available descriptions of the

species, the middle part of the eyes in both sexes is

covered with hair while in A. minutus eyes should

be naked.

Bezzia annulipes (Meigen, 1830), in Stur

& Borkent (2014). The species was listed from

Finnmark region (Stur & Borkent 2014) where

a single male was collected near a lake in Sør-

Varanger municipality. However, the specimen

belongs to the BIN: BOLD:ABW3936, which is

rather distant from other B. annulipes clusters, and

we therefore chose to give this species an interim

name, Bezzia sp. 3ES. More adult specimens are

needed to correctly identify members of the BIN

to species level.

Bezzia circumdata (Stæger, 1939), in Stur &

Borkent (2014). When Stur & Borkent (2014)

published their paper, B. circumdata was believed

to be a senior synonym of B. solstitialis (Winnertz,

1852). However, B. circumdata is now regarded as

a junior synonym of B. annulipes (Meigen, 1830)

(see Dominiak & Szadziewski 2018). The single

female specimen from Finnmark region identied

as B. circumdata (Stur & Borkent 2014) has been

re-examined and it belongs to B. solstitialis.

Bezzia solstitialis (Winnertz, 1852), in Soot-

Ryen (1943a). The rst time the name appeared

as known from Norway was due to an erroneous

synonymization. Soot-Ryen (1943a) incorrectly

synonymized this name with B. circumdata

(Stæger, 1839) and attributed locality data

provided originally by Siebke (1877, p. 205) to

the wrong species.

Brachypogon sp. 1ES, in Stur & Borkent

(2014). The name is used for a single male

specimen from Finnmark region belonging to

BIN: BOLD:ACA2830. We re-identied members

of this BIN as B. incompletus (Kieer, 1925b).

Brachypogon sp. 2ES, in Stur & Borkent

(2014). The name is used for male and female

specimens from Finnmark region belonging

to BIN: BOLD:ABW3956. We re-identied

members of this BIN as B. incompletus (Kieer,

1925b).

Ceratopogon niveipennis Meigen, 1818, in

Zetterstedt (1852). Ceratopogon niveipennis was

reported from Norway by Zetterstedt (1852) as

Siebke’s observation of a male specimen from

Tøyen (Oslo). Later, Zetterstedt (1855, p. 4855)

stated that there is no dierence between this

male, as well as a female specimen (-s) from

Sweden, identied by him as C. niveipennis and

Schizohelea copiosa (Winnertz, 1852) (currently a

junior synonym of S. leucopeza (Meigen, 1804)).

Borkent & Grogan (1995, pp. 60, 62) proved that

Zettersted’s (1850) description of C. niveipennis

was based on specimens of Schizohelea Kieer,

1917 and that the records of this species from

Scandinavia were based on misidentications.

The record of the male specimen from Tøyen was

later repeated by Siebke (1877) and Soot-Ryen

(1943a), in both cases still as C. niveipennis.

Culicoides circumscriptus Kieer, 1918, as

C. salicola Kieer, 1924a and C. pictidorsum

Kieer, 1924a in Kieer (1924a). The record

is a consequence of an incorrectly stated locus

typicus (not Norway) for C. salicola and C.

pictidorsum (both names are junior synonyms of

C. circumscriptus). Besides Kieer (1924a), these

two names were mentioned as described from

Norway by Remm (1988), and C. circumscriptus

is listed also by other authors as known from the

country.

Dominiak & Stur: Norwegian biting midges (Ceratopogonidae)

Culicoides minutissimus (Zetterstedt, 1855),

in Stur & Borkent (2014). The female specimen

from Finnmark region reported by Stur & Borkent

(2014) has been re-examined and it belongs to C.

lenae Glushchenko & Mirzaeva, 1970.

Culicoides newsteadi Austen, 1921, as C.

halophilus Kieer, 1924a in Kieer (1924a). The

record is a consequence of an incorrectly stated

locus typicus (not Norway) for C. halophilus (a

junior synonym of C. newsteadi). Besides of

Kieer (1924a), the name was listed as known/

described from Norway by Havelka (1978) and

Remm (1988), and subsequently C. newsteadi is

also reported by other authors as known from the

country.

Culicoides pictipennis (Stæger, 1839), in

Zetterstedt (1850). The name was reported by

Zetterstedt (1850), who published a record of

a female specimen from Oslo (specimen from

Siebke’s collection). Later however, Zetterstedt

(1855, p. 4862) corrected this identication and

stated that the record of the Norwegian specimen

concerns C. fascipennis (Stæger, 1839) (see

also Soot-Ryen 1943a). Siebke (1877) has most

probably omitted the Zetterstedt’s corrections and

repeated the observation of C. pictipennis in his

own publication.

Culicoides pictipennis (Stæger, 1839), as C.

arcuatus (Winnertz, 1852) in Soot-Ryen (1943a).

The name C. arcuatus, which is currently treated

as a junior synonym of C. pictipennis, was

mentioned with a question mark in Soot-Ryen’s

paper (1943a, p. 7) for a specimen from the

Dovre mountains reported by Siebke. Culicoides

obsoletus (Meigen, 1818), which was incorrectly

synonymized with C. arcuatus by Zetterstedt

(1855, p. 4856), was reported by Siebke (1877)

from several localities in Norway, including

Drivdalen (Dovre). Siebke (1877) did not clarify

if any of the records of C. obsoletus mentioned by

him should be C. arcuatus.

Culicoides reconditus Campbell and Pelham-

Clinton, 1960, in Stur & Borkent (2014). We

have re-examined two specimens from Finnmark

region identied by Stur & Borkent (2014) as C.

reconditus and they belong to C. riouxi Callot &

Kremer, 1961.

Dasyhelea corinneae Gosseries, 1991, as D.

scutellata (Meigen, 1830) in Soot-Ryen (1943a).

Soot-Ryen (1943a, p. 6) mentioned this name

as known from Norway and claimed to repeat

Walker’s record from Alta (Walker 1848, p. 13).

However, the species reported by Walker is not

D. scutellata (a junior synonym of D. corinneae)

but Chironomus scutellatus (Chironomidae), a

species described by Meigen in 1818. The latter

name is currently treated as a junior synonym of

Prodiamesa olivacea (Meigen, 1818).

Dasyhelea sp. 3ES, in Stur & Borkent (2014).

The name was used by Stur & Borkent (2014)

for three females collected in Finnmark region.

The specimens belong to BIN BOLD:ABZ8984,

members of which have been re-identied by us

as D. europaea Remm, 1962a.

Dasyhelea sp. 4ES, in Stur & Borkent (2014).

The name was used by Stur & Borkent (2014) for

one male and three females collected in Finnmark

region. We have re-examined the specimens and

they appear to belong to D. baltica Remm, 1966.

Forcipomyia alacris (Winnertz, 1852), in

Stur & Borkent (2014). We have re-examined the

specimens from Finnmark region identied as

F. alacris by Stur & Borkent (2014) and they all

belong to F. titillans (Winnertz, 1852).

Forcipomyia knockensis Goetghebuer,

1938, in Stur & Borkent (2014). All specimens

from Finnmark region belonging to BIN:

BOLD:ABW3996 turned out to be F. acidicola

(Tokunaga, 1937). The misidentication has been

made due to an incorrect interpretation of the

species given by Remm 1962b (see Szadziewski

1986, p. 22).

Forcipomyia nigrans Remm, 1962b, in Stur

& Borkent (2014). We have re-examined the

specimens from Finnmark region identied as F.

nigrans by Stur & Borkent (2014) and they turned

out to belong to F. sphagnophila Kieer, 1925a.

Forcipomyia palustris (Meigen, 1804), in

Zetterstedt (1850). A misidentication corrected

later by Zetterstedt (1855, p. 4854). The female

specimen from Thynås identied rst as a not

typical form of F. palustris appeared to belong to

Atrichopogon brunnipes (Meigen, 1804).

Forcipomyia sp. 1ES, in Stur & Borkent

(2014). The name was used by Stur & Borkent

(2014) for a single female collected in Finnmark

region. Currently, we have identied this specimen

as F. hygrophila Kieer, 1925a.

Forcipomyia sp. 2ES, in Stur & Borkent

(2014). The name was used by Stur & Borkent

(2014) for two females from Finnmark region

belonging to BIN BOLD:AAN5156. Currently,

we have identied members of this BIN as F.

ciliata (Winnertz, 1852).

Forcipomyia sp. 4ES, in Stur & Borkent (2014).

The name was used by Stur & Borkent (2014)

for a single female specimen from Finnmark

region, which we have currently identied as F.

monilicornis (Coquillett, 1905).

Forcipomyia sp. 5ES, in Stur & Borkent

(2014). The name was used by Stur & Borkent

(2014) for two females collected in Finnmark

region, which we have re-identied as F.

monilicornis (Coquillett, 1905).

Forcipomyia sp. 6ES, in Stur & Borkent

(2014). We have re-examined the specimens

from Finnmark region identied as F. sp. 6ES

nr. palustris and they all belong to F. titillans

(Winnertz, 1852).

Palpomyia aterrima Goetghebuer, 1921, in

various catalogs, online databases and checklists.

We have been unable to nd any published

observation of this species from Norway that

provides locality. The name seems to be mentioned

for the rst time as present in the country in the

Catalogue of Palaearctic Diptera (Remm 1988),

however, without any details regarding locality

or specimens examined. It looks like Krzywiński

(1996) and Szadziewski et al. (1997, 2013)

repeated the information from Remm’s catalog

(Remm 1988).

Palpomyia lineata (Meigen, 1804), in Soot-

Ryen (1943a). The name was listed as known

from Norway due to an incorrect synonymization

with P. binotata (Stæger, 1839). The locality data

provided originally by Zetterstedt (1850, p. 3657)

for P. binotata and repeated by Soot-Ryen (1943a,

p. 9) were attributed by the latter author to the

wrong species.

Palpomyia puberula Remm, 1976, in Stur &

Borkent (2014). We have re-examined the single

female specimen from Finnmark region identied

as P. puberula and it does not t the original

description of the species. Here, this and other

specimens from BIN BOLD:ABZ9646 are given

the interim name Palpomyia sp. 5ES.

Palpomyia serripes (Meigen, 1818), in Stur

& Borkent (2014). We have re-examined the

specimens from Finnmark region identied as

P. serripes by Stur & Borkent (2014) and they

belong to P. pubescens Kieer, 1919a.

Probezzia Kieer, 1906, in Stur & Borkent

(2014). The pupa from Finnmark region

mentioned in Stur & Borkent (2014) as Probezzia

sp. belongs to an unidentied species of the genus

Mallochohelea Wirth, 1962.

Serromyia ledicola Kieer, 1925b, as S.

europaea Clastrier, 1963 in Clastrier (1963).

Borkent & Bissett (1990) explained a complicated

situation with misidentication of Serromyia

species, occurring mostly in older papers like

the ones by Zetterstedt. Borkent & Bissett (1990,

pp. 194, 197, 199) re-examined a paratype male

of S. europaea (a name treated currently as a

junior synonym of S. ledicola) from Norway and

discovered that it belongs to S. femorata (Meigen,

1804). The incorrect record of S. ledicola from

Norway was repeated by Remm (1988).

The presence of the following species

in Norway has not been conrmed in recent

publications and we consider these records

doubtful until the voucher specimens from the

original collections are re-examined. The species

are marked with a star (★) symbol in Table 1 (this

does not apply to species originally described

from Norway):

Atrichopogon fuscus (Meigen, 1804). The

species was reported from Norway by Zetterstedt

(1850) from Møre og Romsdal and Trøndelag

(both records were listed again by Siebke in

1877) and by Soot-Ryen (1943a) from Troms

region. Many species of the genus Atrichopogon

Kieer, 1906 look very much alike, and it is not

likely that the specimens recorded by Zetterstedt

and Soot-Ryen have been correctly identied. In

addition, the syntypes of A. fuscipes (Zetterstedt,

1850), a junior synonym of A. fuscus, were re-

examined by Szadziewski (1986) who designated

a Danish specimen as lectotype and proved that

the specimen from Norway (Thynås) belongs to A.

griseolus (Zetterstedt, 1855) (Szadziewski 1986,

p. 30).

Dominiak & Stur: Norwegian biting midges (Ceratopogonidae)

Atrichopogon rostratus Winnertz, 1852. This

Atrichopogon species was reported from Norway

by Lundström (1913). Due to the previously

mentioned problems with identication of species

of this genus, we follow Szadziewski’s et al.

(1996, p. 307) suggestion to treat all old records

of A. rostratus as uncertain.

Ceratopogon communis Meigen, 1804. This

name was listed as present in Norway by Siebke

(1877). Unfortunately, Borkent & Grogan (1995)

did not study specimens from Siebke’s collection,

so they could not conrm his identications.

However, without checking details of male

genitalia and taking precise measurements it is

often impossible to correctly identify species

of the genus Ceratopogon Meigen, 1803. We

consider Siebke’s records doubtful until the

voucher specimens are re-examined.

Ceratopogon naccinervis Borkent, in Borkent

& Wirth 1997. The species was mentioned

by Soot-Ryen (1943a) as C. crassinervis

(Goetghebuer, 1920) (a name treated currently as

a junior synonym of C. naccinervis). The record is

based on a single female specimen and females of

this species are practically indistinguishable from

few other Ceratopogon species.

Ceratopogon niveipennis Meigen, 1818.

Ceratopogon niveipennis was reported from

Kongshavn (Oslo) by Siebke (1877), who

most probably based his identications on the

description of the species provided by Zetterstedt

(1850). The description is not reliable though.

Borkent & Grogan (1995) have re-examined

specimens from Zetterstedt’s collection which he

has identied as C. niveipennis (Zetterstedt 1850,

p. 3647) and all of them appeared to be members

of the genus Schizohelea Kieer, 1917. The

voucher specimen (-s) from Siebke’s collection

should be re-examined in order to rule out a

probable misidentication.

Culicoides nubeculosus (Meigen, 1830). The

name was mentioned from Norway twice, by

Zetterstedt (1850, 1852), and in both cases the

records were based on Siebke’s observations (who

repeated them in his own paper from 1877). Old

descriptions of C. nubeculosus were not detailed

enough to correctly identify this species, and it is

unlikely that Zetterstedt’s records (1850, 1852)

are accurate.

Palpomyia armipes (Meigen, 1838). It seems

that at least some of the specimens from Senja (N

Norway) identied by Zetterstedt (1838) as P.

hortulana (Meigen, 1818) supposedly belong to P.

armipes (see Zetterstedt 1850, Soot-Ryen 1943a).

Zetterstedt 1850 mentioned this name also from

Tøyen (Oslo) based on Siebke’s observations

(this record was repeated in Siebke 1877). Later

the species was listed from two localities in

Agder county as P. rupecta (Winnertz, 1852)

by Lundström (1913). Many species of the genus

can be dicult to discriminate, therefore all the

voucher specimens from the original collection

should be re-examined to conrm identication.

Palpomyia binotata (Stæger, 1939). The

name was mentioned from Norway only once,

by Zetterstedt (1850) from Verdal in Trøndelag

county. The record was repeated by Siebke (1877)

and later by Soot-Ryen (1943a) who however

attributed it to P. lineata (Meigen, 1804) (due

to incorrect synonymization). Even if a body

coloration of P. binotata is rather characteristic,

the voucher female specimen from Zettersted’t

collection should be re-examined to conrm

identication.

Sphaeromias fasciatus (Meigen, 1804). The

species, mentioned from Norway also as “C.

procerus Fries” (currently S. procerus (Zetterstedt,

1855), a junior synonym of S. fasciatus), was

reported only from Oslo by Zetterstedt (1850,

record based on Siebke’s collection), Zetterstedt

(1855, repeated record but as S. procerus), Siebke

(1877, new record of S. fasciatus, repeated record

for S. procerus) and Soot-Ryen (1943a, repeated

records). Because this biting midge can be easily

confused with S. pictus (Meigen, 1818), another

common species in Europe, the best solution is to

treat Zetterstedt’s and Siebke’s records as doubtful

until the voucher specimens from the original

collection are re-examined.

It is worth noting that Serromyia gelida

Kieer, 1925a, a name being currently a junior

synonym of S. rutarsis (Meigen, 1818), was

originally described from Norway. However, after

Borkent & Bissett (1990) designated a neotype for

S. gelida, its locus typicus was changed to Latvia.

According to Kieer (1925a), a male specimen

Norwegian Journal of Entomology 69, 82

–

190 (2022)

(-s) of this species was collected in Røsvik north

of Tromsø, but most probably the locality he

mentioned is Røsvik in Nordland. Naturally, in

the Limnofauna Europaea (Havelka 1978) and the

Catalogue of Palaearctic Diptera (Remm 1988)

which were published before the revision of the

genus Serromyia by Borkent & Bissett (1990), S.

gelida is stated as present in Norway.

Dasyhelea avoscutellata (Zetterstedt, 1850)

was described from a single female specimen

collected by Siebke in Christiania (present-day

Oslo) (no information about collecting date was

provided; see also Szadziewski 1986, p. 53).

Siebke (1877) published an observation of this

species from the same place, but it is not clear

if this record refers to the type specimen or not.

Siebke (1877) stated that the collection date was 13

July 1852, so evidently later than the description

year of D. avoscutellata, and therefore we treat

his record as a new one (but still doubtful, marked

with star symbol in Table 1). However, one cannot

rule out the possibility that the collection date

from Siebke’s paper (1877) is incorrect and that

the record concerns actually the type specimen.

Ceratopogon pusio Zetterstedt, 1850 (p.

3647), a species described from Norway (Oslo)

and considered earlier to be a biting midge, is a

member of the family Chironomidae (Diptera,

Nematocera) (Borkent & Dominiak 2020).

Comments. Dasyhelea avifrons belongs to

a group of very similar species within subgenus

Dasyhelea s. str. which needs revision. One of

its synonyms, D. obscura (Winnertz, 1852), was

listed from Norway by Soot-Ryen (1943a), but

because of a complicated situation within the

species group, this rst record should be treated

as doubtful. The currently examined specimens

belong to three BINs and they were collected on

wetlands with streams and lakes, and near bigger

rivers.

that these specimens belong to other BINs

(BOLD:ACB8284, BOLD:ACB8279) that the

ones from Trøndelag and Innlandet counties.

Moreover, males from all the BINs t well to

the original description of F. hygrophila while

females show some variations in shape of palpus,

seminal capsules and subgenital plate. It is thus

possible that the examined specimens represent

more than one species.

Comments. The two examined females

are close to the Swedish specimens identied

as Forcipomyia litoraurea (Ingram & Mace,

cluster and shape of their antennal agellomeres

diers slightly from the description of female

F. litoraurea given by Remm (1961a). Male

specimens are needed to correctly identify

specimens from this BIN.

We consider the information about Culicoides

Comments. The name was mentioned from

Norway already by Zetterstedt (1850) and later

also by Siebke (1863, 1877) and Storm (1907).

However, we treat these records as doubtful

until the voucher specimens from the original

collections are re-examined.

Comments. In various catalogs and checklists

(e.g. Remm 1988, Szadziewski et al. 1997, Mathieu

et al. 2012, Szadziewski et al. 2013, Borkent &

Dominiak 2020, Borkent et al. 2022) the species

is listed as known from Norway, because two of

its junior synonyms, namely Culicoides salicola

Kieer, 1924a and C. pictidorsum Kieer, 1924a,

are believed to have their locus typicus in the

country. However, we are convinced that the

type locality “Oldesbac” is a misspelled form of

“Oldesloe”, and that it refers to Bad Oldesloe in

Schleswig-Holstein (Germany) where August

Thienemann was collecting materials from saline

habitats at the beginning of 1920s (Thienemann

1926, Mehl 1996, Dau & Martin 2013). Another

record from Norway given by Kieer (1924a),

which also should be considered invalid, concerns

C. newsteadi Austen, 1921 or precisely its junior

synonym C. halophilus Kieer, 1924a. In this

case, Bad Oldesloe was misspelled as “Oldesloc”.

from many localities in the Palaearctic Region

(including North Africa and the Near East)

(Mathieu et al. 2012, Szadziewski et al. 2013,

Huldén & Huldén 2014), and from Norway it was

reported for the rst time by Thunes et al. (2021)

(see comments below).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:AAZ3959: Norway, Austria,

Comments. The name C. pictipennis appeared

for the rst time in Zetterstedt (1850) and further

the same record was repeated by Siebke (1877).

However, in his paper, Soot-Ryen (1943a)

explains that the record concerns C. fascipennis

(Stæger, 1839), what was also corrected by

Zetterstedt himself (Zetterstedt 1855, p. 4862).

One of the currently accepted junior synonyms

of C. pictipennis, namely C. arcuatus (Winnertz,

1852), was mentioned by Soot-Ryen (1943a, p. 7).

He treated it as a valid (?) name and claimed that a

specimen from Dovre was collected and identied/

reported by Siebke. Soot-Ryen (1943a) referred

most probably to one of Siebke’s specimens from

this locality identied as C. obsoletus (Meigen,

1818) (shown as a doubtful record in Table 1).

The latter name was incorrectly synonimized with

C. arcuatus by Zetterstedt (1855, p. 4856). In our

opinion this potential record of C. pictipennis from

Soot-Ryen (1943a) should be treated as invalid.

the Near East and North Africa (Mathieu et al.

2012, Szadziewski et al. 2013, Huldén & Huldén

2014). It has been reported from all mainland

Nordic countries, including Norway, where the

rst country record was given by Mehl (1996)

(see comments below). Culicoides fascipennis

was later mentioned from other localities in the

country by Mraz (1997) and Stur & Borkent

(2014).

Comments. Soot-Ryen (1943a) stressed that

records of C. pictipennis (Stæger, 1839) from

papers by Zetterstedt (1850) and Siebke (1877)

concern C. fascipennis. Actually, the correction

was made by Zettersted himself (Zetterstedt

1855, p. 4862), what Siebke (1877) has clearly

overlooked. This rst record of C. fascipennis

from Norway is treated by us as doubtful.

Distribution. Brachypogon incompletus has

been reported from several European countries

(including Finland, Norway, and Sweden) and

from the East Palaearctic (Szadziewski et al.

2013). The rst country record from Norway

was provided by Clastrier (1961, as B. lapiae

(Clastrier, 1961)), and later Hagan et al. (2000)

mentioned the species from Viken and Vestland

counties (see comments below).

Comments. The specimens from Finnmark

region mentioned by Stur & Borkent (2014) as

Brachypogon sp. 1ES (BIN: BOLD:ACA2830)

and B. sp. 2ES. (BIN: BOLD:ABW3956)

(specimens FiCer97, FiCer103, FiCer139 are

turned out to be B. incompletus.

The examined specimens belong to two quite

distant clusters and even if they look similar, it is

possible that they represent more than one species.

The single pupa of B. incompletus was collected

from a lake in Trøndelag county.

Distribution. The species is rather widely

distributed in the Palaearctic Region, and in

Nordic countries it is known from Faroe Islands,

Finland, and Norway. According to the Fauna

Dominiak & Stur: Norwegian biting midges (Ceratopogonidae)

121

Europaea database a presence of this midge in

Denmark is considered doubtful (Szadziewski et

al. 2013). Brachypogon nitidulus was reported

from Norway for the rst time from Viken and

Vestland counties (Hagan et al. 2000), and Stur &

Borkent (2014) listed it later also from Finnmark

region.

than the currently examined specimens from

South Norway.

(Szadziewski et al. 2013, Huldén & Huldén 2014;

for more details see Borkent & Grogan 1995, pp.

71, 72). Ceratopogon lacteipennis was described

from Senja (Finmark region) by Zetterstedt

(1838), and later it was reported also from other

localities in the country (Hagan et al. 2000, Stur

& Borkent 2014) (see comments below).

Comments. Following Borkent & Grogan’s

suggestion (1995, p. 16) to treat as doubtful

records of Ceratopogon Meigen, 1803 based

on specimens which should be re-identied, we

consider an information about occurrence of this

species in Filefjell mountains in Innlandet county

(Siebke 1877) as questionable.

One of the paralectotypes of C. lacteipennis

belong in fact to Palpomyia spinipes (Meigen, in

Distribution. Schizohelea leucopeza has a

Holarctic distribution (Szadziewski et al. 2013)

and from Norway it was reported for the rst time

by Clastrier (1963) as Monohelea xanthopeza

Clastrier, 1963 (see comments below). Another

country record comes from Hagan’s at al. (2000)

paper who listed it from Viken county.

Distribution of BIN members in

BOLD System. BOLD:ACY5060: Norway;

BOLD:ACL4093: Norway, Canada, Germany,

Sweden, United States.

Comments. We are not entirely sure how to

treat a short note by Zetterstedt (1855, p. 4855)

stating that there is no dierence between his

specimens of Ceratopogon niveipennis Meigen,

1818 and Schizohelea copiosa (Winnertz, 1852)

(currently a junior synonym of S. leucopeza).

However, we added this information as a

doubtful record of S. leucopeza from Norway in

the Table 1, even if it comes from a paragraph

in Zetterstedt’s paper (1855) concerning C.

niveipennis. There are two reasons in favor of

such decision. First, from the revision of the genus

Ceratopogon Meigen, 1803 (Borkent & Grogan

1995, p. 62) it is known that Zettersted’t (1850)

description of C. niveipennis was in fact based on

specimens of Schizohelea Kieer, 1917. Second,

in the literature cited, Zetterstedt (1855) listed

his previous publication with Norwegian record

of a male specimen collected by Siebke in Tøyen

(Oslo) (Zetterstedt 1852, p. 4350). This male from

Norway and a female from Sweden were the only

specimens from Scandinavia available for his

studies, and it means that exactly these particular

specimens look like S. copiosa. The record from

Tøyen (obviously still as C. niveipennis) was

repeated by Siebke (1877) and Soot-Ryen (1943a).

It is worth noting that the sequences of the

two BINs are very distant and it is possible that

the examined specimens, although identied as S.

leucopeza, belong to two dierent species.

Identication of the examined males were

based on DNA match with females from the same

BINs and a description and drawings given by

Wirth & Grogan (1988).

Distribution. In Western Palaearctic it is a

very widely distributed species (Borkent & Bissett

1990, Szadziewski et al. 2013). The rst reliable

record of Serromyia femorata from Norway

was given by Zetterstedt (1850) (specimens re-

examined by Borkent & Bissett 1990 and locality

shown on a map). Further records, which can be

considered valid, come from papers by Borkent

& Bissett (1990), Hagan et al. (2000), Håland

(2011), Stur & Borkent (2014) and Thunes at al.

(2021) (see comments below).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ACA4694: Norway, Finland,

Germany, Sweden. BOLD:ACX2455: Norway,

Comments. The name S. femorata was

mentioned in old literature from Norway few

times by Zetterstedt (1838, 1850, 1855), Siebke

(1853, 1863, 1877) and Strand (1903). According

to Borkent & Bissett (1990), only part of the

specimens examined by Zetterstedt (1838,

1850) really belong to S. femorata. The authors

do not give more details about localities of the

reidentied specimens, but on the distribution

maps for this species (Borkent & Bissett 1990,

p. 182, Fig. 19A), there are marked two localities

only – in Alta (Clastrier 1963) and in Verdal

(Zetterstedt 1850). It can mean that the specimens

from Senja (Zetterstedt 1838) were misidentied,

but there is no guarantee that this assumption

is correct. Thus, we kept this record in Table 1

(marked with star symbol). Borkent & Bissett

(1990) do not comment on Siebke’s collection

from various localities in Norway, nor records by

Zetterstedt (1855, based on Siebke’s collection)

and Strand (1903). Therefore, we decided to treat

these observations as doubtful until the original

material is re-examined.

Borkent & Bissett (1990, pp. 194, 197,

199) stated that a paratype male of Serromyia

europaea Clastrier, 1963 (a name being now a

junior synonym of S. ledicola Kieer, 1925b)

from Norway (Clastrier 1963, p. 67) belongs to S.

femorata.

In the revision of the genus by Borkent

& Bissett (1990) there are many examples of

mistakes in identications and/or incorrect

interpretation of various Serromyia species. Some

of the Scandinavian specimens identied by

Zetterstedt (1838, 1850) as S. femorata belong

to S. ledicola Kieer, 1925b and S. subinermis

Kieer, 1919a, and the ones identied as S. morio

(Fabricius, 1775) are S. femorata.

Distribution. Serromyia ledicola is a

widely distributed species, known from both

the Palaearctic and Nearctic Regions, but

records from Nordic countries come only from

Denmark and Sweden (Borkent & Bissett 1990,

Szadziewski et al. 2013). Although it is listed in

Fauna Europaea database as present in Norway,

none of the literature records of this species can be

treated as valid, thus S. ledicola is considered by

us as new to the Norwegian fauna (see comments

below).

Distribution of BIN members in

BOLD System. BOLD:ACQ9613: Norway;

BOLD:ACS7502: Norway, Germany.

Comments. The species was mentioned from

Norway as Serromyia europaea Clastrier, 1963

(Clastrier 1963) but Borkent & Bissett (1990, pp.

194, 197, 199) have examined the male paratype

from Norway and proved a misidentication. In

fact, Clastrier’s specimen belongs to S. femorata

(Meigen, 1804). Borkent & Bissett (1990) stated

also that at least some of the specimens listed by

Zetterstedt (1838, 1850) as S. femorata belong to

S. ledicola. They do not specify which country

in Scandinavia the material originated but on

the distribution maps for S. ledicola (Borkent

& Bissett 1990, p. 181, Fig. 18A) there are no

records shown from Norway.

The currently examined male TRD-Cer149

belonging to the BIN: BOLD:ACS7502 has

a rather rounded distal end of the gonostyles,

in contrast to the normally pointed ends in S.

ledicola.

Material examined. Kristiansand, N

63.44887°, E 10.45362°, 19.–24.VI.2013, 1 male

(TRD-Cer213).

Distribution. This Serromyia species

is known from several countries in Europe

(Szadziewski et al. 2013; for more details see

Borkent & Bissett 1990), but from Norway there

are only unconrmed records from Oslo (Tøyen,

Soenberg) (Zetterstedt 1852, Siebke 1877)

which should be considered doubtful. Thus, we

decided here to treat S. morio as species new to

the Norwegian fauna (see comments below).

Distribution of BIN members in

BOLD System. BOLD:AEF4425: Norway.

BOLD:ACT6684: Norway.

Comments. Even if the species is rather easily

recognizable, the early observations from Oslo

(Zetterstedt 1852 – based on Siebke’s observations,

Siebke 1877) are not totally reliable and for now

the best solution is to treat them as doubtful.

Unfortunately, it looks like Borkent & Bissett

(1990) were not aware of Siebke’s collection

from Norway, so they do not comment on his

materials and do not show any localities from

the country on their distribution maps (Borkent

& Bissett 1990, p. 182, Fig. 19B). Most probably

Siebke has based his identications of Serromyia

morio on a rather brief description by Zetterstedt

(1850), and as stated in Borkent & Bissett (1990),

the latter author (as well as and many others)

made mistakes when identifying members of

the genus Serromyia Meigen, 1818. Some of the

Scandinavian specimens identied by Zetterstedt

(1850) as S. morio belong to S. femorata (Meigen,

1804), and those identied as “C. avicornis" (a

name being currently in the genus Bezzia Kieer,

1899) are S. morio. The specimens from Siebke’s

collection should be re-examined to rule out a

possible misidentication.

has been reported from several localities in Europe

(including Denmark, Finland, and Norway) and

from the Near East (Szadziewski et al. 2013). The

rst record from Norway was given by Zetterstedt

(1850) (see comments below).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ACX3725: Norway, Montenegro,

Sweden.

Comments. Because of its considerable

size and rather well-visible dark pigmentation

of wing membrane around the radial cells, the

species is quite easily recognizable. Interestingly,

neither Macquart (1826) nor Meigen (1838) and

Zetterstedt (1850) mentioned the peculiar shape

of the fourth tarsomeres of mid and hindlegs

and coloration of the fth tarsomere of fore legs.

These characters are for the rst time described

by Winnertz (1852) in his detailed diagnoses of

both sexes of Clinohelea variegata (Winnertz,

1852), a name being currently treated as a

junior synonym of C. unimaculata. Zetterstedt

(1855, p. 4852), stated that there is no dierence

between C. unimaculata from Scandinavia and

C. variegata described from Germany, therefore

one can assume that the specimens from Thynås

(Zetterstedt 1850) have been correctly identied.

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ACO5271: Norway, Sweden.

Comments. Bezzia circumdata Stæger, 1839,

a name which is currently treated as a junior

synonym of B. annulipes, was mentioned from

Norway already by Siebke (1877). However,

we treat this early record as doubtful. Siebke’s

observation from Oslo was repeated by Soot-Ryen

(1943a) who incorrectly treated B. circumdata as

a synonym of B. solstitialis (Winnertz, 1852).

The single female specimen from Finnmark

region (Stur & Borkent 2014) identied as B.

circumdata has been re-examined and it belongs

to B. solstitialis (Winnertz, 1852).

Distribution data for B. annulipes available in

Fauna Europaea (Szadziewski et al. 2013) should

be reviewed due to recent changes concerning

synonymy of this name (see Dominiak &

Szadziewski 2018).

The immature stages available for our studies

were found in a pond and in various lakes in South

Norway.

61.17878°, E 11.40217°, 9.–23.VI.2016, 1 male

(HED-Cer270).

Distribution. Bezzia nigritula is known from a

number of European countries including Norway

(Szadziewski et al. 2013), where the species has

its locus typicus in Senja (Zetterstedt 1838). Other

country records of this species were given by

Zetterstedt (1850), Siebke (1863) and Hagan et al.

(2000) (see comments below)

Distribution of BIN members in

BOLD System. BOLD:ADF7283: Norway;

BOLD:ADD8546: Norway, Finland.

Comments. The species is rather easily

recognizable due to darkly colored legs and lack

of spines on fore femora, therefore we decided

to treat the records from Norway by Zetterstedt

(1850) and Siebke (1863) as valid.

Bezzia nobilis (Winnertz, 1852)

Literature for identication. Remm (1974b),

Krzywiński (1996) (for identication of adults

only).

Material examined. Drammen, N 59.75880°,

Trondheim, N 63.33993°, E 10.34176°, 27.V.2020,

1 larva (MM-Cer332).

Distribution. This widely distributed species,

known from the Holarctic and Neotropical

Regions, in Nordic countries has been reported so

far only from Finland and Sweden (Szadziewski et

al. 2013, Huldén & Huldén 2014). Bezzia nobilis

Distribution. It is a rarely reported species,

known so far only from Norway, Poland, and

Russia (Siberia) (Remm 1974b, Szadziewski et

al. 2013). The observations from Norway were

published by Hagan et al. (2000, the rst country

record) and Stur & Borkent (2014).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ACM6383: Norway; BOLD:

ADG4592: Norway.

Comments. The species is known from

Finnmark region (Stur & Borkent 2014), and

both, the specimens from this region and the

newly examined specimens belong to in total ve

BINs (besides the abovementioned ones these

are BOLD:ABW3959, BOLD:ABW3985 and

(MM-Cer217, MM-Cer218, MM-Cer219, MM-

Cer220).

Distribution. Bezzia solstitialis has a Holarctic

distribution (Wirth et al. 1984), and the rst valid

record of this species from Norway was published

by Hagan et al. (2000) (see comments below).

Comments. Although the name B. solstitialis

was mentioned from Norway for the rst time

by Soot-Ryen (1943a) (to avoid confusion the

information is not included in the Table 1), this

record is based on a misinterpretation of the

species. Soot-Ryen (1943a) treated B. solstitialis

and B. circumdata (Stæger, 1839) as synonyms

but in fact these two names are not conspecic

(see Dominiak & Szadziewski 2018). The locality

data for B. circumdata provided by Siebke (1877)

were incorrectly attributed by Soot-Ryen (1943a)

to B. solstitialis.

A single female specimen from Finnmark

region identied as B. circumdata in Stur &

Borkent (2014) and re-examined by us for purposes

of this paper, turned out to be B. solstitialis.

Distribution data for B. solstitialis available in

Fauna Europaea (Szadziewski et al. 2013) should

be reviewed due to recent changes concerning

synonymy of the name (see Dominiak &

Szadziewski 2018).

The currently examined immature stages of

this species were found in samples taken from

lakes.

Comments. The examined males t well

to Bezzia annulipes (Meigen, 1830), however,

a single female available for our studies diers

from that species by slightly shorter necks of the

seminal capsules and an almost completely dark

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ABW3936: Norway, Sweden.

Comments. The species was listed as Bezzia

annulipes (Meigen, 1830) from Finnmark region

(Stur & Borkent 2014) where a single male was

collected near a lake in Sør-Varanger municipality.

However, the BIN: BOLD:ABW3936 is rather

distant from other B. annulipes clusters. More

adult specimens are needed to correctly identify

its members to species level.

The currently collected immatures we found in

samples taken from lakes.

Bezzia sp. 4ES

Comments. The single adult specimen

belongs to the subgenus Homobezzia Mace, 1932

and has no spines on femora. Besides of unicolor

legs it resembles Bezzia bicolor (Meigen, 1804).

More specimens are needed to correctly identify

members of that BIN to species level.

The single examined pupa was collected from a

lake.

Distribution. According to the Fauna

Europaea database, Palpomyia distincta is

known from many European countries, and in

Fennoscandia it has been reported from Finland,

Norway, and Sweden (Szadziewski et al. 2013).

However, we treat the rst and the only previous

observation of the species from Norway by Soot-

Ryen (1943a) as doubtful and consider the current

one as a new country record (see comments

below).

Comments. The record from Soot-Ryen

(1943a) was based on a single male specimen

collected in N Norway. However, males of

P. distincta can be easily confused with other

closely related species, and the specimen from

Soot-Ryen’s collection should be re-examined to

conrm the identication.

We had a chance to re-examine Swedish

specimens (NHRS) of the BIN: BOLD:ACX2908

identied as P. armipes (Meigen, 1838). All of

them are males and t rather well to the description

of P. distincta given by Remm (1976).

Norway come from publications by Zetterstedt

(1838, 1852), Siebke (1866, 1873, 1877) and

Lundström (1913), but we treat them here as

doubtful until the specimens from the original

Among the barcoded specimens from South

Norway there was also one larva. It was collected

in a stream owing into Lundevatnet.

Comments. The name was mentioned from

Norway for the rst time by Soot-Ryen (1943a)

(to avoid confusion the information is not included

in the Table 1), who attributed locality data for

P. binotata (Stæger, 1839) from Zetterstedt’s

paper (1850) to P. lineata. Although no further

explanations were provided, it seems that Soot-

Ryen treated these two names as synonyms.

Currently, it is known that P. binotata and P.

lineata are not conspecic, thus the notes on the

latter species by Soot-Ryen (1943a) should be

treated as misinterpretation.

Female and males from the BINs

BOLD:ACX1556 and BOLD:ACS7887 have

dark legs like North American specimens of P.

lineata (see Grogan & Wirth 1979).

The larvae of this species were found in

various kinds of freshwater habitats (river, lake,

pond).

Distribution. The species has been reported

from several localities in the Palaearctic Region,

and in Nordic countries it is known from Finland,

Norway, and Sweden (Szadziewski et al. 2013).

The rst valid country record of this species was

given by Krzywiński (1996), and later it was

reported also by Hagan et al. (2000) and Thunes

et al. (2021) (see comments below).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ABW3938: Norway, Finland,

Sweden; BOLD:ADF7741: Norway, Sweden;

BOLD:AEF5429: Norway.

Comments. Although Palpomyia pubescens

was mentioned from Norway already by Soot-

Ryen (1943a), a female specimen from his

collection should be re-examined to conrm the

identication.

Stur & Borkent (2014) misidentied this

species and listed it from Finnmark region as P.

serripes (Meigen, 1818).

We have been able to re-examine a

specimen from Sweden (NHRS) from BIN:

BOLD:ABW3938 originally identied as male P.

serripes. That specimen appeared to be a female

and all of its morphological characters t well

within P. pubescens.

The specimens examined belong to three

BINs, with BIN BOLD:AEF5429 being quite

distant from the remaining two clusters.

Distribution. There are numerous observations

of this Palpomyia species from Europe and the

East Palaearctic (Szadziewski et al. 2013), and

the name was mentioned for the rst time from

Norway by Soot-Ryen (1943a) (see comments

below).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ADH8757: Norway.

Comments. The female specimens Soot-Ryen

(1943a) collected in Troms region have been

identied by M. Goetghebuer. We believe that this

record is valid because females of P. rupes are

rather easily recognizable due to their large size

and characteristic body coloration.

Distribution. Palpomyia serripes is a widely

distributed species known from Europe, the East

Palaearctic, the Near East, and North Africa

(Szadziewski et al. 2013, Alwin-Kownacka et

al. 2017). The rst record of this species from

Norway was given by Hagan et al. (2000).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

58.06956°, E 07.98100°, 24.VI.2020, 2 females

(MM-Cer258, NTNU-VM 227074).

Distribution. Another species of the genus

which is rather widely distributed and occurs in

Europe, the East Palaearctic, and the Near East

(Szadziewski et al. 2013). Palpomyia spinipes

was reported from Norway for the rst time by

Szadziewski (1986) (see comments below).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ACX3286: Norway, Montenegro,

Sweden.

Comments. According to Szadziewski (1986)

who redescribed Ceratopogon lacteipennis

Zetterstedt, 1838, one of the paralectotypes of the

latter species turned out to belong to P. spinipes.

The records of this species from N Norway by

Soot-Ryen (1943a) are treated by us as doubtful

until the voucher specimens from the original

collection are re-examined.

Palpomyia tibialis (Meigen, 1818)

Material examined. Tvedestrand, N

58.54531°, E 08.81223°, 19.VI.2020, 1 male

(MM-Cer158).

Distribution. Palpomyia tibialis has been

reported from several localities in the West

and the East Palaearctic, the Near East, and the

Nearctic Region (Szadziewski et al. 2013, Alwin-

Kownacka et al. 2017). The rst observation of

this species from Norway come from Soot-Ryen's

paper (1943a) (see comments below).

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:AEF5428: Norway.

Comments. The species was reported from

the country as P. laticollis Goetghebuer, 1922 (a

name treated currently as a junior synonym of P.

tibialis). A single (?) specimen was collected in

Dominiak & Stur: Norwegian biting midges (Ceratopogonidae)

137

N Norway by T. Soot-Ryen and identied by M.

Goetghebuer. Palpomyia tibialis is rather easily

recognizable, and therefore we treat this early

record of the species as valid.

Comments. The species was reported as

Palpomyia puberula Remm, 1976 from Finnmark

region (Stur & Borkent 2014). However, the leg

coloration of the currently examined specimens

from the same BIN does not t the original

description of the species by Remm (1976).

Palpomyia sp. 6ES

Comments. The single female resembles

Palpomyia rupes (Meigen, 1818) but diers in

some details which are characteristic for other

species of this genus, e.g., presence of stronger

setae on 5th tarsomere. A Swedish specimen

(NHRS) belonging to the same BIN has not been

available for our studies.

18.VI.2020, 1 male (NTNU-VM 227069).

Distribution. Phaenobezzia rubiginosa is

known from several countries in Europe and from

the East Palaearctic (Szadziewski et al. 2013). In

Scandinavia it was reported previously only from

Sweden (Krzywiński 1996). The species is new to

the Norwegian fauna.

Distribution of BIN members in BOLD

System. BOLD:ACX2151: Norway, Sweden.

Comments. The two pupae of P. rubiginosa

available for our studies were collected from a

partial oxbow lake in Agder county.

Conclusions

We provide a rst comprehensive list of

Ceratopogonidae known to occur in mainland

Norway (summarized in Table 1). The checklist

is based on both newly collected specimens and

revised literature records. Linnaean names are

provided for 165 out of a total of 216 recorded

biting midge species. We consider 58 of them

as species new to the Norwegian fauna. In our

opinion, records of a further 9 species previously

mentioned from Norway should be treated as

doubtful until the voucher specimens from the

original collections are re-examined or new

specimens of these species are collected and

identied with certainty. The remaining 51 of total

216 are species given interim names (names with

species could not be assigned. In the case of

Atrichopogon cf. hirtidorsum Remm, 1961b, A. cf.

minutus (Meigen, 1830), Brachypogon cf. nieves

(Havelka, 1976) and Ceratopogon cf. inverecundus

Borkent & Grogan, 1995, a comparison with type

materials or simply more specimens available for

studies are needed to verify the identications. All

other Ceratopogonidae assigned to interim names

were mostly separated based on dierences in

their DNA barcodes (COI sequences). We were

unable to correctly classify them, either because

they did not t to any known species description,

or because the examined specimens were

represented by a life stage or sex with little or no

diagnostic features.

The biting midges reported from Norway belong

to the following 21 genera, each represented by the

number of recorded species given in parentheses

Taxonomy and feeding of Forcipomyia (Microhelea) fuliginosa Meigen and Forcipomyia (Microhelea) esakiana Tokunaga (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) on Antheraea mylitta Drury (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)

Article

ZOOTAXA

Taxonomic equivocality and complexity exist in the two species of Ceratopogonids, Forcipomyia (Microhelea) fuliginosa Meigen and Forcipomyia (Microhelea) esakiana Tokunaga. Incongruencies and inaccuracies in species identification restrict further biological and ecological studies on the host-ectoparasite association. Preferential landing and hemolymphophagy of F. fuliginosa and F. esakiana on Antheraea mylitta Drury larva were studied under field conditions. The silkworm A. mylitta is reared in the tasar sericulture industry, contributing 1466 metric tons (2021-22) of indigenous raw silk in India. Ectoparasitic behavior of the biting midges, F. fuliginosa, and F. esakiana is an increasing threat to the silkworm, necessitating proper identification. Intra and inter-variations of these two closely related species have been stated. Morphological-based identification of these species has been substantiated with COX1 molecular data. A Bayesian-modeled approach to reconstruct the dendrogram of the two species based on the COX1 sequences generated has been presented along with the referred sequences of F. fuliginosa from Genebank. The species F. esakiana is being reported for the first time from India, along with its ectoparasitic hemolymphophagous nature. The role of these insectivorous species in transmitting pathogens to the larvae of tasar silk needs further investigation.

AN ACAD BRAS CIENC

The fourth instar larva and pupa of Dasyhelea flavifrons Guérin-Méneville are redescribed, illustrated, and photomicrographed using binocular, phase-contrast, and scanning electron microscopy. Comparisons with the American species of the grisea group were made. The immatures were collected by using a siphon bottle in tree-holes and from water collected in dead snail shells in Salta Province, Argentina, transported to the laboratory and there bred to the emergence of the adults. Details on larval habitats are given. These are the first records from Argentina and in gastrotelmata.

Invertebrados bentónicos como bioindicadores de calidad de agua en Lagunas Altoandinas del Perú

Article

Dec 2018

El objetivo de este estudio fue estimar la diversidad y abundancia de invertebrados bentónicos en lagunas altoandinas del Perú y determinar su posible uso como indicadores biológicos. Se muestrearon un total de 16 lagunas, 4 en la cuenca del río Rímac y 12 en la cuenca del Mantaro durante la época seca (junio-octubre 2015). Se determinaron 34 familias, el Phylum Arthropoda obtuvo la mayor riqueza relativa y abundancia relativa de organismos (72.3% y 89.1%), seguidos del Phylum Annelida (12.8% y 4.3%, respectivamente), Mollusca (6.4% y 5.4%, respectivamente) y Platyhelminthes (8.5% y 1.2%, respectivamente). De las 34 familias, la Clase Insecta predominó con 24 familias distribuidas en 6 órdenes, dentro de los cuales el orden Diptera fue más representativa con 7 familias, seguidas del Orden Coleoptera con 5 familias. El análisis de similitud (ANOSIM) mostró que a nivel espacial existen diferencias significativas entre las lagunas estudiadas (R= 0.4845 y p= 0.0001). El Análisis de Similitud Porcentual (SIMPER) encontró disimilitudes a nivel espacial y temporal, en donde las familias Corixidae (Hemíptera), Chironomidae (Diptera) y Hyalellidae (Amphipoda) son las que influyen en la estructura de la comunidad. El análisis de Correlación Canónica (CCA) reportó una mayor correlación de los insectos, bivalvos, gasterópodos y oligoquetos, respecto a valores elevados de conductividad, pH, temperatura y oxígeno disuelto. (Versión Past 2.17, p= 0.0001). Del total de la varianza la abundancia de taxa se debió a los 2 primeros ejes, las correlaciones especies-ambientales fueron de 53.86% para el primer y 29.91% segundo eje respectivamente, explicando una relación especies ambiente del 83.78%. El análisis de Escalamiento Multidimensional no Paramétrico (NMDS) obtuvo un estrés de 2D =0.12, mostrando que las lagunas Canchis y Churuca tiende a separarse del resto. Las familias Chironomidae, Cyprididae, Corixidae y Hyalellidae resultaron resistentes a las condiciones ambientales alteradas por materia orgánica y metales pesados. Según los valores del ABI de las 16 lagunas muestreadas, las lagunas Marca, Huaroncocha, Ticticocha, Yananyacu y Huacracocha presentaron el mayor valor, consideradas con el estado ecológico de moderado, mientras que las lagunas Huascocha, Canchis y Churuca se consideraron en pésimo estado, y las nueve restantes como mala.

Biting midges of the genus Dasyhelea Kieffer (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in Poland

Article

Sep 2012

Patrycja Dominiak

. This article reviews 30 species of biting midges of the genus Dasyhelea that are known to occur in Poland. Diagnoses and detailed descriptions of adults are provided for all Polish species, as well as keys (based mainly on males) for the identification of subgenera and their included species. Dasyhelea excellentis BORKENT, 1997 is recognized as a new junior synonym of Dasyhelea bifida ZILAHI-SEBESS, 1936 ( syn. n. ) and Dasyhelea lugensis BRODSKAYA, 1995 as a new junior synonym of Dasyhelea caesia REMM, 1993 ( syn. n. ). Among the Polish biting midge fauna, most species of the genus Dasyhelea are primarily arboreal, widely distributed Palaearctic species. The most species-rich samples were collected in the following regions: Eastern Baltic Lakelands (19 spp.), Southern Baltic Lakelands (16 spp.), Southern Baltic Coastlands (14 spp.) and Central Western Carpathians (12 spp.). The larvae were found in sap and tree holes, water accumulated in gutters and sinks, moist soil near fresh- and saltwater bodies, and peat bogs. Adults are known to visit flowers for nectar, and 16 Polish species were found on umbelliferous flowers.

Article

Jun 2020

A list of all valid 6,206 extant and 296 fossil species of Ceratopogonidae described worldwide is provided, along with all their synonyms. A full citation and the country of origin of the type is given, with some larger countries also providing a more specific state or province. For the first time, worldwide, nomina dubia are identified. Numbers of species of each genus and subgenus are listed. Within subfamilies and tribes, genera are listed alphabetically. Five species have newly recognized authors, four have new names and 28 new combinations are recognized, with these listed in a table. A commentary on the state of the systematics in the family and particularly of Culicoides Latreille is given. The museums of the world are listed with the types of various authors of Ceratopogonidae species indicated. Authors providing regional catalogs, as well as summation of various collections are tabulated. The rate of description since 1758 indicates a steady progression of description, with, for example, 1,231 valid species described since the compilation of the world species by Borkent & Wirth (1997), till the end of 2018. The diversity in each Region is compared and the numbers of species shared between adjacent Regions presented.
