1 Specimens randomly selected from a single catch from the high abundance season (August/September 2010), stored in 70% ethanol for more than 1 year and analysed using a database containing validated biomarker mass sets of 15 Culicoides species [27].
2 Meters above sea level.
3 PCR/sequencing [22] with 6 randomly chosen ( http://www.random.org) specimens/site. Species identification by comparison with GenBank entries (>99% identity).
4 Percentage of Culicoides morphologically classified as belonging to Obsoletus group, Pulicaris group or other Culicoides of the catch from which the specimens were selected for the MALDI-TOF MS analyses.
4 Identified by PCR/sequencing [22].
5 No species identification achievable due to poor quality mass spectra.
6 Best match: 96% identity (403/422) with GenBank entry HQ824509 (Ccxx segnis from Switzerland).
