Table 1.

Total emergence of adult Culicoides species from the three habitat types

Culicoides spp.a Stream Seepage Puddle Total
Male Female Male Female Male Female
C. haematopotusb 97 183 0 2 25 44 351
C. stelliferc 0 10 6 6 50 44 116
C. loisaeb 15 18 2 5 6 1 47
C. venustusd 0 0 4 2 12 8 26
C. insignise 0 1 0 1 0 0 2
Total 112 212 12 16 93 97 542

aSex-ratios of the emerged adults were not significantly different between Culicoides species or habitat types (P > 0.05)

bThe emergence of C. haematopotus and C. loisae was significantly higher from stream sites than from the other two habitat types (P < 0.05)

cThe emergence of C.stellifer was significantly higher from puddle sites than from the other two habitat types (P < 0.05)

dThe emergence of C. venustus was not significantly different between puddle and seepage sites (P > 0.05)

eThe emergence of C. insignis was too low to be included in statistical analyses
