Notes

Simulium velutinum occurs in most of Europe but is especially common in the Mediterranean subregion from the Canary Islands (type locality) to Israel and Jordan ( Crosskey and Malicky 2001). According to Kazancı and Ertunç (2008), S. velutinum also inhabits southwestern Anatolia. Its existence in Turkish Thrace is, therefore, expected. Identification of this species is most reliably based on genitalia: the ventral plate of the male is smaller and more triangular and the spermatheca of the female is without the usual sclerotized nipple-like extension that is found in the other members of the S. aureum group.
