The fauna of blood-sucking midges of the Lower Volga region is represented by one taiga species (Simulium morsmulitans Edw.), three steppe and forest-steppe species (Titanopteryx maculata Mg., Schonbaueria matthiesseni End., Boophtora erythrocephala De Geer.), and the species Odagmia ornate Mg. has a polyzonal range and is widespread.
Seasonal dynamics of attack of blood-sucking midges on humans and animals has two (rarely three) peaks of activity. The nature of the daily activity of blood-sucking midges refers to the morning-evening type, depends on the complex impact of fluctuations in external environmental factors, mainly temperature, lighting, wind. Analysis of long-term hydrometeorological and entomological data shows a direct correlation between the number of midges, the height of the water level and the duration of the spring flood. Data on ecological and biological features, phenology of development and dynamics of the number of blood-sucking midges in the Lower Volga region are necessary for establishment of rational terms of disinsection and other actions for decrease in their number.
