The ceratopogonid fauna of Guam has attracted minimal interest since the 1959 survey of the insects of Micronesia. We report on new distribution records for three species previously unknown from the island of Guam: Culicoides peliliouensis Tokunaga, Dasyhelea carolinensis Tokunaga, and Dasyhelea dupliforceps Tokunaga.
