The contrasting bionomics of Culex mosquitoes in western North America.

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association - 1 Dec 2012

Reisen William K

Abstract excerpt

Mosquitoes in the genus Culex are the primary enzootic maintenance and bridge vectors of the North American encephalitides, now including West Nile virus. This review briefly summarizes the biology of three key vector species in western North America, Culex tarsalis, Cx. pipiens complex and Cx. stigmatosoma, focusing on the long history of research done in California. Topics reviewed include population genetic...
