Gynandromorphs in mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) from Valle del Cauca, Colombia.
Gynandromorphs of Culex nigripalpus Theobald (2), Cx. pedroi Sirivanakarn and Belkin (1) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) (2) are described. Two individuals of the latter species were reared in the laboratory, while the remaining three specimens were wild-caught with different traps in rural areas in Valle del Cauca department, southwestern Colombia. All of the individuals were mounted on microscop...
متن کاملOvitrap Surveillance of Aedes Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae)
Background & Objective : Dengue, a major public health problem in India is caused mainly by Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus. In Uttarakhand State (India), there has been a heavy increase in dengue cases in the year 2010 and thereafter in 2011-12, there was a decline. Keeping in view a change in climatic scenario i.e., heavy rainfall during June to September, we are expecting more and more case...
متن کاملInvertebrate carcasses as a resource for competing Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae).
Terrestrial invertebrate carcasses are an important resource for insects developing in pitcher plants. However, little is known of the role of these carcasses in other containers, which also receive leaf fall and stemflow inputs. This experiment investigated effects of accumulated invertebrate carcasses as a resource for two competing mosquitoes, Aedes albopictus (Skuse) and Aedes aegypti (L.),...
متن کاملThe Efficacy of Some Commercially Available Insect Repellents for Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) and Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae)
Reducing the number of host-vector interactions is an effective way to reduce the spread of vector-borne diseases. Repellents are widely used to protect humans from a variety of protozoans, viruses, and nematodes. DEET (N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide), a safe and effective repellent, was developed during World War II. Fear of possible side effects of DEET has created a large market for "natural" DE...
متن کاملWing shape as an indicator of larval rearing conditions for Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae).
Estimating a mosquito's vector competence, or likelihood of transmitting disease, if it takes an infectious bloodmeal, is an important aspect of predicting when and where outbreaks of infectious diseases will occur. Vector competence can be affected by rearing temperature and inter- and intraspecific competition experienced by the individual mosquito during its larval development. This research...
