Considerations for Accurate Identification of Adult<i>Culex restuans</i>(Diptera: Culicidae) in Field Studies

2008-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the ecology and behavior of different mosquito species (Diptera: Culicidae) is essential for identifying their role in disease transmission cycles and public health risk. Two species of Culex mosquitoes in the northeastern United States, Culex pipiens L. and Culex restuans Theobald, have been implicated in enzootic transmission of West Nile virus (family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus, WNV). Despite...
