Objective To investigate the species distribution of hematophagous midges in 31 counties (banners and cities) in 8 provinces (autonomous regions) of China, including Jiangxi and Yunnan. Methods From 2013 to 2018, hematophagous midges were captured with light traps at the residences, cattle pens, sheepfolds, chicken houses, pig pens, duck pens, and vegetable plots in 31 counties (banners and cities) in 8 provinces (autonomous regions) of China, including Jiangxi and Yunnan; specimens were slide-mounted in phenol-balsam. Results A total of 184 314 hematophagous midges from 72 species belonging to 2 genera were collected from 31 counties (banners and cities) in 8 provinces (autonomous regions) of China, of which 63 species belonged to the genus Culicoides and 9 species belonged to the genus Lasiohelea. There were 7 species in 3 counties (banners) in Inner Mongolia, 4 species in a county in Xinjiang, 16 species in a county in Guizhou, 9 species in 2 counties (cities) in Sichuan, 27 species in 10 counties (cities) in Jiangxi, 20 species in 3 counties in Hunan, 36 species in 6 counties (cities) in Yunnan, and 28 species in 5 counties (cities) in Hainan. In terms of distribution in provinces and cities, dominant midges species were distributed as follows: C. punctatus in 19 counties (cities) in 7 provinces (autonomous regions), C. homotomus in 18 counties (cities) in 7 provinces (autonomous regions), C. arakawai in 27 counties (cities) in 6 provinces (autonomous regions), C. oxystoma in 23 counties (cities) in 6 provinces (autonomous regions), C. parahumeralis in 12 counties (cities) in 6 provinces, and C. nipponensis in 12 counties (cities) in 5 provinces (autonomous regions). C. punctatus, C. homotomus, C. arakawai, C. oxystoma, and C. nipponensis each were distributed in cattle pens, sheepfolds, pig pens, duck pens, and residences. Conclusion Hematophagous midges from 72 species belonging to 2 genera are collected in 31 counties (banners and cities) in 8 provinces (autonomous regions) of China; C. punctatus, C. homotomus, C. arakawai, C. oxystoma, C. nipponensis, and C. parahumeralis are widely distributed hematophagous midge species in the 31 counties (cities) in 8 provinces (autonomous regions) under this investigation in China.
