Table 2.

Number of spectra, sensitivity, specificity, and number of true positive, true negative, false positive, and false negative identifications for the three species.

Species	Number of Spectra	True Positive	True Negative	False Positive	False Negative	Sensitivity	Specificity
T. indotineae	905	865	1966	8	40	95.6%	99.6%
T. interdigitale	1476	1198	1252	151	278	81.2%	89.2%
T. mentagrophytes	498	338	2125	256	160	67.9%	89.2%

Regarding the 5212 spectra constituting the outgroup, there was no misidentification as T. indotineae. The only spectra that matched against references belonging to the T. mentagrophytes species complex were 16 spectra of Trichophyton tonsurans that were misidentified as T. interdigitale (n = 11) and T. mentagrophytes (n = 5).
