吸血蠓是线虫科蠓科蝇类，现有6200余种。这一群体仍然鲜为人知，也不容易识别。昆虫翅膀的结构着色（WIP，或翅膀干涉图案）是一种被称为彩虹的光学现象的一个例子，这种现象是基于透明或半透明结构反射的白光干涉而形成的无色素彩虹色。初步结果表明，这些昆虫翅膀的结构颜色可能有助于近亲和隐种的划分。
Biting midges, nematoceran flies family Ceratopogonidae, is represented by more than 6200 valid species. This group is still poorly known and not easy in identification. Structural coloration of insect wings (WIP, or Wing Interference Pattern) is an example of an optical phenomenon called iridescence, which is based on the formation of pigment-free, rainbow colours caused by the interference of white light reflected from transparent or semi-transparent structures. Preliminary results indicate that the structural colouring of the wings of these insects may be helpful in the delimitation of closely related and cryptic species.
