Mosquito (Diptera: Culicidae) species composition in ovitraps from a Mesoamerican Tropical Montane Cloud Forest
(Oxford University Press, 2018-08-20)
Knowledge about mosquito species diversity at tropical montane cloud forests (TMCFs) in Mesoamerica is scarce.
Here, we present data on mosquito species richness from samples biweekly collected, from January to December
2017, ...
Density dependence in a seasonal time series of the bamboo mosquito, Tripteroides bambusa (Diptera: Culicidae)
(Entomological Society of Canada, 2017)
The bamboo mosquito, Tripteroides bambusa (Yamada) (Diptera: Culicidae), is a
mosquito species ubiquitous across forested landscapes in Japan. During 2014 we sampled adult
mosquitoes from May to November using a sweep ...
Density dependence, landscape, and weather impacts on aquatic Aedes japonicus japonicus (Diptera: Culicidae) abundance along an urban altitudinal Gradient
(Oxford University Press on behalf of Entomological Society of America, 2017-09-20)
The Asian Bush Mosquito, Aedes (Finlaya) japonicus japonicus (Theobald) is an important globally invasive
mosquito species. In comparison with other major invasive mosquitoes, relatively little is known about Ae. j. ...
New and common haplotypes shape genetic diversity in Asian tiger mosquito populations from Costa Rica and Panama
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus (Skuse) (Diptera: Culicidae), is a vector of sev eral human pathogens. Ae. albopictus is also an invasive species that, over recent years, has expanded its
range out of its native ...
Seasonal weather, nutrients, and conspecific presence impacts on the southern house mosquito oviposition dynamics in combined sewage overflows
(Entomological Society of America, 2012-06-13)
Combined sewage overflows have created favorable conditions for the establishment
of the southern house mosquito, Culex quinquefasciatus Say (Diptera: Culicidae), larvae in natural
creeks that would otherwise be unsuitable ...
Genetic variability among populations of the sand fly Lutzomyia (Lutzomyia) Longipalpis (Diptera: psychodidae) from Central America
(Entomological Society of America., 1998-03)
Eleven Central American populations of Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva) were analyzed for genetic variation at 16 enzyme loci. The aim was to study the genetic structure among populations within this region and to ...
Hot temperatures can force delayed mosquito outbreaks via sequential changes in Aedes aegypti demographic parameters in autocorrelated environments
(Elsevier B.V, 2014)
Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) is a common pantropical urban mosquito, vector of dengue, Yellow
Fever and chikungunya viruses. Studies have shown Ae. aegypti abundance to be associated with envi ronmental fluctuations, ...
Nestedness patterns of sand fly (Diptera: Psychodidae) species in a neotropical semi-arid environment
(Elsevier, 2016)
A common pattern in neotropical Leishmania spp. transmission is the co-occurrence of several sand fly
(SF) species at endemic foci. We collected 13 SF spp. by direct aspiration in natural resting places (NRP)
and 10 SF ...
Mosquito species (Diptera: Culicidae) diversity from ovitraps in a Mesoamerican Tropical Rainforest
(Oxford University Press on behalf of Entomological Society of America, 2018-01-30)
Mosquito sampling using efficient traps that can assess species diversity and/or presence of dominant vectors is
important for understanding the entomological risk of mosquito-borne disease transmission. Here, we ...
Overwintering in the Bamboo Mosquito Tripteroides bambusa (Diptera: Culicidae) during a warm, but unpredictably changing, winter
(Oxford University Press on behalf of Entomological Society of America, 2018)
The bamboo mosquito, Tripteroides bambusa (Yamada) (Diptera: Culicidae), is a common insect across forested
landscapes in Japan. Several studies have reported its overwintering as larvae and eggs, in both natural ...
