Additional file 1: Table S1. of Picky eaters are rare: DNA-based blood meal analysis of Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) species from the United States

Summary of data for blood-engorged Culicoides species collected in North America. Provided are the collection locality information (State, county, latitude and longitude), year collected (year), Culicoides species, sample size at each locality (n), and identification of host using DNA-based blood meal analysis (Host ID). The host species are: black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus); black-tailed jackrabbit (Lepus californicus); cattle (Bos taurus); domestic dog (Canis familiaris); domestic goat (Capra hircus); domestic sheep (Ovis aries); donkey (Equus asinus); horse (Equus. caballus); swine (Sus scofa); white-tailed deer (O. virginianus); emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae); house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus). We also included the cluster in the neighbor-joining tree that contained haplotypes from individuals at each location. If we could not obtain genetic information from individuals at that location this was also included. (XLSX 15Â kb)
