Color, Bacteria, and Mosquito Eggs as Ovipositional Attractants for \u3ci\u3eAedes Aegypti\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3eAedes Albopictus\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
Selected bacterial washes, color, and mosquito eggs were comparatively examined as ovipositional attractants for Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Any evidence of additive activity was noted.

Advantages and Limitations of Commercially Available Electrocuting Grids for Studying Mosquito Behaviour. [PDF]
Mosquito feeding behaviour plays a major role in determining malaria transmission intensity and the impact of specific prevention measures. Human Landing Catch (HLC) is currently the only method that can directly and consistently measure the biting rates

Barcoding Quantitative PCR Assay to Distinguish Between Aedes aegypti and Aedes sierrensis
The accurate identification of mosquito species is critical for effective mosquito surveillance and control, especially when presented with morphologically similar species like Aedes aegypti and Aedes sierrensis.

Avian malaria co-infections confound infectivity and vector competence assays of Plasmodium homopolare. [PDF]
Currently, there are very few studies of avian malaria that investigate relationships among the host-vector-parasite triad concomitantly. In the current study, we experimentally measured the vector competence of several Culex mosquitoes for a newly ...

ANTI-MOSQUITO BEHAVIOR OF ADULT AND JUVENILE WHITE-FOOTED MICE (PEROMYSCUS LEUCOPUS) (TREEHOLE MOSQUITO, AEDES TRISERIATUS, EPIDEMIOLOGY) [PDF]
Rodents seldom are identified as hosts for mosquitoes, based on serological analysis of bloodmeals. However, due to limited survey and lack of sensitivity in most bloodmeal analyses, host species can be misrepresented or undetected. Knowledge of behavior
