Five species of colonized Toxorhynchites mosquitoes were compared for relative susceptibility to parenteral infection with the four dengue serotypes and St. Louis and Japanese encephalitis viruses. Tx. amboinensis, Tx. brevipalpis, Tx. rutilus, and Tx. splendens were equally susceptible to infection with the dengue viruses, while Tx. theobaldi was relatively resistant to infection with those viruses. All five mosquito species were equally susceptible to infection with the encephalitis viruses. The intensity of immunofluorescence in head squashes was slightly less in Tx. brevipalpis infected with the dengue viruses as compared to the other three mosquito species susceptible to those viruses. Immunofluorescence was also less in Tx. theobaldi infected with the encephalitis viruses as compared with all the other mosquito species.
对五种定殖的巨蚊属蚊子进行了比较，以研究它们对四种登革热血清型以及圣路易斯脑炎病毒和日本脑炎病毒肠道外感染的相对易感性。amboinensis巨蚊、brevipalpis巨蚊、rutilus巨蚊和splendens巨蚊对登革热病毒的感染易感性相同，而theobaldi巨蚊对这些病毒的感染相对具有抗性。所有这五种蚊子对脑炎病毒的感染易感性相同。与其他三种对登革热病毒易感的蚊子相比，感染登革热病毒的brevipalpis巨蚊头部压片中免疫荧光的强度略低。与所有其他蚊子相比，感染脑炎病毒的theobaldi巨蚊的免疫荧光也较少。
