Ten pools and ponds were monitored on a weekly basis for presence of mosquito pathogens and parasites over a three year period near Edmonton, Alberta. Acari, fungi, Microsporidia and Peritrichida were found associated with mosquitoes. Percentage of collections with pathogens and parasites (prevalence) followed by the mean percentage infection within the samples, in parentheses (estimated % incidence) for the three year period were as follows: Coelomomyces psorophorae var. psorophorae 0.9(0.01-0.02), Culicinomyces clavisporus 1.2(0.09-0.2), Saprolegniales 50.1(15), Smittium sp. 23.0(4), Microsporidia 10.9(0.6-1.4), Peritrichida 43.4(30) and Acari 3.2(0.04). The high incidence of Saprolegniales may be a result of attack on stressed individuals under laboratory conditions. Several host and country records are reported. It is concluded that pathogens and parasites generally had little effect on the mosquito populations.
在艾伯塔省埃德蒙顿市附近,对十个池塘和水塘进行了为期三年的每周监测,以检测蚊子体内病原体和寄生虫的存在情况。发现蜱螨亚纲、真菌、微孢子虫和缘毛目与蚊子有关。三年期间,带有病原体和寄生虫的采集样本百分比(患病率),以及样本内感染的平均百分比(估计发病率,括号内)如下:普氏库蠓菌变种普氏库蠓菌0.9(0.01 - 0.02),匙孢库蠓菌1.2(0.09 - 0.2),水霉目50.1(15),斯米特霉属23.0(4),微孢子虫10.9(0.6 - 1.4),缘毛目43.4(30),蜱螨亚纲3.2(0.04)。水霉目的高发病率可能是在实验室条件下对处于应激状态个体的攻击所致。报告了一些宿主和国家记录。结论是病原体和寄生虫通常对蚊子种群影响很小。
