Investigations of biological invasions focus on patterns and processes that are related to
introduction, establishment, spread and impacts of introduced species. This review focuses …

Oviposition traps set in rural to urban environments in three south Florida counties were
colonized predominantly by Culex quinquefasciatus Say (35.1%), Aedes albopictus …

Abstract Background Aedes albopictus and Culex pipiens larvae reared in the same
breeding site compete for resources, with an asymmetrical outcome that disadvantages only …

Investigations of competitive interactions emphasize non-detrital resources, even though
detritus is a major component of most food webs. Studies of competing species focus usually …

Competition experiments estimating the relative effects of inter-and intraspecific competition
can help to resolve whether interspecific competition results in coexistence or exclusion. For …

This study investigated the impacts of urban wetlands and their adjacent residential
environments on the transmission dynamics of West Nile virus (WNV) within the state of New …

Background Many mosquito-borne diseases exhibit substantial seasonality, due to strong
links between environmental variables and vector and pathogen life-cycles. Further, a range …

1. Few studies have taken a comprehensive approach of measuring the impact of inter‐and
intra‐specific larval competition on adult mosquito traits. In this study, the impact of …

Discarded tires are an important habitat for larvae of multiple species of disease-transmitting
mosquitoes. Although tire locations likely influence composition and abundance of vectors …

The success of an invasive species in a new region depends on its interactions with
ecologically similar resident species. Invasions by disease vector mosquitoes are important …
