Biting midges are known vectors of medical and veterinary diseases globally. In Northwestern Argentina they are involved in filariasis transmission caused by Mansonella ozzardi. The aim of this paper was to determine the abundance and spatial distribution of Culicoides in two types of environments through principal component analysis (PCA).Mansonella ozzardi.
