Semi-field and surveillance data define the natural diapause timeline for <i>Culex pipiens</i> across the United States

Abstract excerpt
Culex pipiens is a globally-distributed mosquito of medical and veterinary importance, serving as a primary vector of West Nile virus (WNV). To survive winter, female Cx. pipiens mosquitoes undergo adult reproductive diapause initiated by photoperiod and temperature cues.
