Evaluation of Mesocyclops annulatus (Copepoda: Cyclopoidea) as a control agent of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) in Argentina. [PDF]
We evaluated the potential of Mesocyclops annulatus as a control agent of Aedes aegypti in La Plata city (Argentina). Mosquito larval survivorship due to predation by these copepods was estimated at weekly intervals during the oviposition period of A ...

The Culicidae of the Cambridge District
1. The mosquito fauna of the Cambridge district, which includes a large stretch of cultivated fenland, is compared with that of the “natural” fen at Wicken and also with that of other districts.2. The ecology of the various species is discussed and the conclusion is reached that the main factor determining why different species are found in different ...

Anti‐mosquito salivary gland antibodies were detected in the sera of macaques (Macaca arctoides, M. leonina and M. fascicularis) from Kaeng Krachan, Khao Yai and Mu Ko Ranong National Parks, respectively. For M. leonina and M. fascicularis, the highest titres were against Ae. aegypti while Ae. albopictus antibody titres were observed in M.

Carbon dioxide baited trap catches do not correlate with human landing collections of Anopheles aquasalis in Suriname [PDF]
Three types of carbon dioxide-baited traps, i.e., the Centers for Disease Control Miniature Light Trap without light, the BioGents (BG) Sentinel Mosquito Trap (BG-Sentinel) and the Mosquito Magnet® Liberty Plus were compared with human landing ...

The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...

We identified Culex pipiens bloodmeals at the species level in natural, agricultural and peri‐urban habitats and calculated host preferences based on forage ratios. This analysis showed Passeriformes, and in particular Columba livia, Passer montanus and Turdus sp., to be the preferred Cx. pipiens hosts.
