Someone argued with me that noseeums are just younger bugs then black flies. I knew that person was full of crap. Well I did research today and I was correct. They are NOT the same bugs.
NoSeeUms are Ceratopogonidae or biting midges.
Black flies are Simuliidae of the Culicomorpha infraorder
They are related but they aren't from the same family of bugs.
They are not the same as mosquitoes or even deer-flies, both of which bite and cause pain!!!
