The family Ceratopogonidae includes about 5,000 described species of midges with quite diverse habits, including blood-sucking forms that transmit important diseases of man and animals, species that suck hemolymph from caterpillars and other insects and may be of importance in biological control, and a large number of predators as adults and larvae that are important links in the food chains of aquatic organisms.
