Abstract

The presence of Aedes j. japonicus in Florida is reported for the first time. Four adult females were collected by a Mosquito Magnet® X trap baited with pressurized CO in Okaloosa County, FL, in August 2012 and later identified as Ae. japonicus in 2014. Additional adult and larval specimens were collected during 2014-17 from Bay, Leon, Okaloosa, Santa Rosa, or Walton counties, Florida. Notes are provided on the location, general habitats, and mosquito associates that may be found with Ae. japonicus in northwestern Florida. The role of Ae. japonicus in arbovirus transmission within Florida is currently unknown and should be further explored.

摘要

首次报道了日本伊蚊在佛罗里达州的存在。2012年8月，在佛罗里达州奥卡卢萨县，用加压二氧化碳诱捕的Mosquito Magnet® X诱蚊器捕获了4只成年雌蚊，随后在2014年被鉴定为日本伊蚊。2014年至2017年期间，在佛罗里达州的湾县、利昂县、奥卡卢萨县、圣罗莎县或沃尔顿县采集了更多的成年和幼虫标本。文中提供了在佛罗里达州西北部可能与日本伊蚊共存的地点、一般栖息地和蚊虫伴生种类的相关记录。目前尚不清楚日本伊蚊在佛罗里达州虫媒病毒传播中的作用，应进一步探索。
