During the past decades, Simulium (Boophthora) erythrocephalum proved to be an extremely aggressive anthropophilic blackfly species in the Province of Vojvodina, Serbia. Prior to 2006, last outbreaks in Vojvodina occurred after severe flooding of the Danube river and Tisza river in the springs of 1965 and 1970. The extremely evelated level of the Danube in the spring of 2006 and cold weather at the time created suitable conditions for another outbreak of S. erythrocephalum. Situated on both banks of the Danube, the city of Novi Sad with numerous villages in the vinicity represents a particularly endangered region. The presence of adult S. erythrocephalum females was continually recorded in traps during the season from April to mid-July. Periods with frequent cases of elevated biting risks extended from April to the end of June. Recorded clinical cases of patients suffering from bites were in correlation with the periods of elevated risk of being bitten by S. erythrocephalum.
