Abstract: Objective To investigate the species composition and distribution of biting midges(Ceratopogonidae)in nine tourist attractions of Mount Lu, Mount Sanqing, Mount Longhu, Meiling Mountain, Mingyue Mountain, Fairy Lake, Wuyuan, Jinggang Mountains, and Ruijin in Jiangxi province, China. Methods The light trapping, netting, and human trap methods were used to collect non-blood-sucking and blood-sucking midges. Excel 2007 software was used to perform a statistical analysis on the number and composition ratio of biting midges collected. Results A total of 30 831 midges were collected from the nine tourist attractions in Jiangxi province, which belonged to 126 species, 9 genera,and 3 subfamilies. Among them,there were 65 species of 3 genera from subfamily Forcipomyiinae, 13 species of 1 genus from subfamily Dasyheleinae,and 48 species of 5 genera from subfamily Ceratopogoninae. A total of 10 new species were reported for the first time, and 30 species were new records for Jiangxi province. Culicoides, Forcipomyia, and Dasyhelea accounted for 73.56%,13.47%, and 9.40%, respectively, of the total catch. There were 66 species of 7 genera in Meiling Mountain, 57 species of 9 genera in Jinggang Mountains, 37 species of 7 genera in Mount Lu, 29 species of 5 genera in Mingyue Mountain, 26 species of 6 genera in Ruijin, 22 species of 5 genera in Fairy Lake, 22 species of 5 genera in Wuyuan, 21 species of 5 genera in Mount Longhu,and 17 species of 4 genera in Mount Sanqing. Culicoides arakawae(40.64%)and C. oxystoma(35.20%)were the dominant species in the nine tourist attractions of Jiangxi province. The composition ratio of main midge species varied in different tourist attractions. Conclusion The species composition and distribution of midges, especially blood-sucking midges, in tourist attractions of Jiangxi province are obtained, which provides a scientific basis for the control of blood-sucking midges and midge-borne diseases in the tourist attractions of Jiangxi province, China.

摘要： 目的 调查江西省境内庐山、三清山、龙虎山、梅岭、明月山、仙女湖、婺源、井冈山和瑞金共9个旅游景区蠓科昆虫的种群组成及分布。方法 采用诱蚊灯法、网捕法和人诱法采集非吸血蠓和吸血蠓。利用Excel 2007软件对采集的蠓数量及构成比进行统计分析。结果 2011－2017年在江西省庐山等9个旅游景区共采集到蠓科昆虫30 831只，隶属3亚科9属126种，其中铗蠓亚科3属67种，毛蠓亚科1属13种，蠓亚科5属48种；新发现并描述了蠓科10个新种；江西省新纪录30种。库蠓属、铗蠓属和毛蠓属分别占采获蠓总数的73.56%、13.47%和9.40%。梅岭分布7属66种，井冈山9属57种，庐山7属37种，明月山5属29种，瑞金6属26种，仙女湖5属22种，婺源5属22种，龙虎山5属21种和三清山4属17种。江西省9个旅游景区的优势蠓种为荒川库蠓（40.64%）和尖喙库蠓（35.20%），不同景区主要蠓种的构成比不同。结论 掌握了江西省旅游景区蠓科昆虫特别是吸血蠓的种群构成和分布，为江西省旅游景区吸血蠓及其蠓传疾病的防制提供了科学依据。
