The term does not encapsulate a well-defined taxonomic group, but includes animals in several families of Nematoceran Diptera. The habits of midges vary greatly among the component families, which include:[1] * Blephariceridae, net-winged midges * Cecidomyiidae, gall midges * Ceratopogonidae, biting midges (also known as no-see-ums or punkies in North America) * Chaoboridae, phantom midges * Chironomidae, non-biting midges (also known as muffleheads in the Great Lakes region of North America) * Deuterophlebiidae, mountain midges * Dixidae, meniscus midges * Scatopsidae, dung midges * Thaumaleidae, solitary midges ____________________________________________ Re: [smith001] Midges - Dryrod - 04-13-2010 [left][font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000]Hi there Smitty and welcome to the Fly fishing forum.
