Looking over my channel and reminiscing... this was quite the shoot.....

Nothing I watch this Halloween can compare with these lines about midges I just read in Jane Powers's "An Irish Nature Year"
-
That's a thing here in #Scotland too, though here it's supposed to repel #midges – a kind of miniaturised stealth bomber mosquito.
I suspect in both bases it's bollocks.

Oh ye, wha in your oors o ease,
Are fashed wi golochs, mauks, an flees,
Fell stingin wasps an bumble bees,
Tak tent o this:
There’s ae sma pest that’s waur nor these
To mar your bliss…—W.R. Darling, “The Pest”

#FridayFlyday: after seeing boxwood leaf miners emerging for the first time last weekend, the day before yesterday I saw lots of females ovipositing in the fresh new boxwood leaves!!

Best discovery at this weekend's yard sale day: I saw a bunch of tiny orange midges swarming around certain shrubs in people's yards. Looking closer, I saw they were molting from galls on the undersides of the leaves—often in bundles of three or four, leaving empty exuviae behind. Many were mating, presumably about to start the cycle all over again.
Just got around to looking it up. They are boxwood leaf miners, a kind of gall midge (family Cecidomyiidae). More information: https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/IN1291

Not all Scotland's midges are this big. As Summer approaches, here's what you need to know about the smaller ones: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/usfeatures/midges/index.html

#Oropouche #Fever, #Cuba, May 2024, Emerg Infect Dis.: https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30/10/24-0900_article
Phylogenetic analyses showed that virus responsible for a May 2024 Oropouche fever #outbreak in Cuba was closely related to viruses from #Brazil in 2023. Pools of Ceratopogonidae spp. biting #midges and #Culex quinquefasciatus #mosquitoes were positive for Oropouche viral RNA. No cases were severe. Virus extension to new areas may increase case numbers and severity.

@happydisciple Ah, be thankful – in August in Scotland, the sky may not be clear, but it does come with added protein.

https://globalnews.ca/news/10694129/oropouche-fever-sloths-insects-canadian-travel/ “An insect-transmitted virus.. is spreading at an “unprecedented” rate, with health officials warning that it is emerging in parts of the world, including Europe, where it has never been detected.
#Oropouche fever, a potentially fatal #zoonotic disease, is transmitted by tiny flies called #midges and #mosquitoes.. There is currently no vaccine for the virus, which is part of the same family of diseases as #Zika and #dengue fever.”

#Outbreak of #Oropouche virus in #Brazil should be a ‘wake-up call’, say experts https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/article/2024/aug/02/outbreak-of-oropouche-virus-in-brazil-should-be-a-wake-up-call-say-experts
The deaths of two young women, #miscarriages and #birth defects in Brazil have been linked to Oropouche virus, a little-known disease spread by #midges and #mosquitoes.

#Discovery of Novel #Viruses in #Culicoides Biting #Midges in #Chihuahua, #Mexico https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/16/7/1160
To conclude, we discovered multiple novel viruses in C. reevesi from Mexico, expanding our knowledge of arthropod viral diversity and evolution.

Not a mosquito but a Cecidomyiinae, likely of the genus Lasioptera sp: a kind of gall midget or gall gnat.
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/81412856
From a lucky shot in focus back in 2021. Thanks to the #iNaturalist community for the ID. With Cecidomyiidae being a family likely more speciose than even beetles [1], the chances of identifying this animal are slim.
