The vector ecology of introduced Culex quinquefasciatus populations, and implications for future risk of West Nile virus emergence in the Galápagos archipelago

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 44-55, March 2019., 2019
Invasive mosquito species can transmit novel disease pathogens; Culex quinquefasciatus Say is a recent invader of the Galápagos archipelago, where it has been found on five of the islands. In Galápagos, high temperatures limit C. quinquefasciatus abundance, and water salinity hinders larval development.
