During an epizootic of bluetongue virus disease of sheep in Cyprus in the autumn of 1977, 16 spp. of Culicoides were collected in light-traps and 4 spp. were collected from breeding sites. Two of the species breeding in close association with sheep and goats are potential vectors of bluetongue virus. The possibility of a 3rd sp. being a vector in Cyprus is discussed. [The species are: C. circumscriptus Kieffer, C. cataneii Clastrier, C. imicola Kieffer, C. puncticollis Becker, C. lailae Khalaf, C. punctatus (Meigen), C. newsteadi Austen, C. azerbajdzhanicus Dzhafarov, C. citrinellus Kieffer, C. coluzzii Callot, Kremer et Bailly-Choumara, C. agathensis Callot, Kremer et Rioux, C. tauricus Gutsevich, C. maritimus Kieffer, C. pulicaris (L.), C. obsoletus (Meigen), C. schultzei (Enderlein).].
