The vertical distribution of mosquitoes (Diptera, Culicidae) was evaluated in Paju County in northern South Korea by using Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) miniature light traps with ultraviolet light and dry ice (CO2) as attractants. CDC traps were placed at 1, 3 and 5 m above the ground near rice paddies in a relatively open agricultural ara. Traps wer hung on two scaffold towers (6 m height) spaced approximately 300 m aprt. Each trap operated 9 nights from August 3 to 16, 2002, and collected 9,971 mosquitoes: Aedes Vexans nipponii, 145.2; Culex tritaeniorhynchus, 34.9; Anopheles sinensis, 21.3; and Culex pipiens, 17.3 female mosquitoes/trap/night. Average flight height was calculated from the total number of catches in both stations. Overall, Cx. pipiens (2.52 +/- 0.35 m) was found to be the highest flying species followed by An. sinensis (2.04 +/- 0.79 m), Ae. vexans nipponii (1.96 +/- 0.44 m), and Cx. tritaeniorhynchus (1.76 +/- 0.68 m), respectively. Although no significant difference in flying height among species was encountered, every species showed their own flight preference range, matching with their host preference.
通过使用美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）配备紫外线及干冰（CO₂）作为引诱剂的微型诱蚊灯，对韩国北部坡州市蚊子（双翅目，蚊科）的垂直分布情况进行了评估。CDC诱蚊灯放置在相对开阔的农业区稻田附近离地1米、3米和5米的高度处。诱蚊灯悬挂在两座间距约300米的脚手架塔（高6米）上。每个诱蚊灯在2002年8月3日至16日期间运行9个夜晚，共捕获9971只蚊子：骚扰伊蚊日本亚种，145.2只；三带喙库蚊，34.9只；中华按蚊，21.3只；致倦库蚊，每诱蚊灯/每晚捕获17.3只雌蚊。根据两个站点的总捕获量计算平均飞行高度。总体而言，发现致倦库蚊（2.52±0.35米）是飞行高度最高的物种，其次是中华按蚊（2.04±0.79米）、骚扰伊蚊日本亚种（1.96±0.44米）和三带喙库蚊（1.76±0.68米）。尽管未发现不同物种在飞行高度上有显著差异，但每个物种都显示出其自身的飞行偏好范围，这与其宿主偏好相匹配。
