Blood-engorged Coquillettidia perturbans, Psorophora ferox, Culex, Culiseta, and Aedes mosquitoes were collected principally by sweep net from salt marsh and woodland habitats in Connecticut. Of the 570 mosquitoes tested, precipitin tests identified the origins of 517 blood meals and revealed distinct host feeding patterns. Aedes mosquitoes fed chiefly on mammals; A. abserratus, A. cantator, and A. vexans showed selectivity for cattle and (or) horses. A. cantator also obtained blood from avian hosts and, in some instances, showed mixed passerine-mammal blood meals. These findings increase the vector potential of this salt marsh mosquito for eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus. Feedings on deer by A. abserratus suggest potential involvement of this mosquito in the transmission of certain subtypes of California encephalitis. Culex-pipiens, C. restuans, Culiseta melanura, and Cs. morsitans dyari acquired blood almost exclusively from passeriform birds.
充血的骚扰柯蚊、凶猛贪食库蚊、库蚊属、脉毛蚊属和伊蚊主要是通过扫网法从康涅狄格州的盐沼和林地栖息地采集的。在检测的570只蚊子中，沉淀素试验确定了517份血餐的来源，并揭示了不同的宿主取食模式。伊蚊主要吸食哺乳动物的血；异常伊蚊、歌伊蚊和刺扰伊蚊对牛和（或）马表现出选择性。歌伊蚊也从鸟类宿主获取血液，在某些情况下，还表现出混合的雀形目动物 - 哺乳动物血餐。这些发现增加了这种盐沼蚊子作为东部马脑炎病毒传播媒介的可能性。异常伊蚊吸食鹿血表明这种蚊子可能参与了某些加利福尼亚脑炎亚型的传播。致倦库蚊、环跗库蚊、黑尾脉毛蚊和戴尔脉毛蚊几乎完全从雀形目鸟类获取血液。
