Discussion. Wilkening et al. (1985) listed C. furens from 34 Florida counties, however, their records did not include Lee Co. despite that Blanton and Wirth (1979) listed two records from this county in their monograph of Florida Culicoides . We provide additional records from Lee and Wakulla counties.

New records. Lee Co., Sanibel Island, Beach at Middle Gulf Drive, 25-IX-2006, W. A. Tanguay, Biting man at dusk, 4 females (WLGC). Wakulla Co., Wakulla Springs State Park, Lodge Road, 25 May 2004, S. Murphree, CDC light trap with UV wand, 3 females (BUTC).
