*Dashes indicate that seroprevalence was not estimated because of the small number of serum samples tested for birds of that species. SLEV, St. Louis encephalitis virus; WNV, West Nile virus. †Prevalence (%) defined as the no. positives divided by total samples multiplied by 100. ‡For seropositive species with <10 birds, seroprevalence was not calculated.
