While there are numerous species in Iceland, there are two in particular that are most common: Chironomidae, also known as lake midges, and Simuliidae, also known as the black fly. Fortunately, they look pretty different from one another because one is your friend and the other your sworn enemy.
The most damage they do to us is kind of swarm in your face on a hot day, especially one near a body of standing water, and generally, annoy you. The black fly, by contrast, gets its nourishment by drinking the blood of people and animals.
Their bite, while not extraordinarily painful, is exacerbated by the fact that, like the lake midge, they also swarm. Dozens of smaller bites are arguably harder to deal with than a single sharp sting. They might not be as majestic as the reindeer or as amusing as the puffin, but the midge nonetheless deserves a place in the pantheon of animals in Iceland. Further Domestic Restrictions Announced.
