Three potentially important aspects of mark-release-recapture experimentation were addressed: 1) source of mosquitoes for release, 2) time of release, and 3) weather during recapture. Culex tarsalis Coquillett mosquitoes collected as adult host-seeking females from dry ice-baited traps (CO2 traps) operated within the study area (local) were recaptured more frequently than females collected from traps operated outside the study area (foreign) or reared from field-collected immatures (reared). These results supported published studies on Anopheles and Ochlerotatus that indicated mosquitoes may "memorize" flight paths within their environment. Releasing gravid females provided a potentially useful replacement for reared females, because these gravids oviposited at wetlands and then dispersed to upland traps. Releasing local, foreign, or reared mosquitoes just after sunrise or just before sunset did not alter recapture success or the distance dispersed. Elevated wind speeds inhibited dispersal from protected microhabitats with citrus orchards and resulted in most recaptures being found at the leeward portion of the orchard.
1）释放的蚊子来源，2）释放时间，以及3）再捕获期间的天气。从研究区域（本地）内运行的干冰诱饵诱捕器（二氧化碳诱捕器）收集的成年寻找宿主的雌性致倦库蚊（Culex tarsalis Coquillett），比从研究区域外（外地）运行的诱捕器收集的雌性蚊子或从野外采集的未成熟个体饲养的雌性蚊子（饲养的）更频繁地被重新捕获。这些结果支持了关于按蚊和伊蚊的已发表研究，这些研究表明蚊子可能会“记住”其环境中的飞行路径。释放怀孕的雌性蚊子为饲养的雌性蚊子提供了一种潜在有用的替代方法，因为这些怀孕的蚊子在湿地产卵，然后分散到高地诱捕器。在日出后或日落前释放本地、外地或饲养的蚊子不会改变再捕获成功率或分散距离。风速升高抑制了从有柑橘园的受保护微生境的扩散，并导致大多数再捕获个体在果园的背风部分被发现。
