In August and September 2017, we conducted mosquito surveillance in southeastern Colorado by using ovitraps and larval sampling. The aim was to determine if there were established populations of and in the region. A single female was reared from eggs collected in La Junta, CO, but was not detected. Three other species were reared from eggs and/or larvae: , , and and were detected for the 1st time in Otero and Baca counties, respectively, and these became new county records for Colorado. Both species were detected in very low numbers, suggesting extremely low population density or sporadic introductions into southeastern Colorado.
2017年8月和9月,我们通过使用诱蚊产卵器和幼虫采样在科罗拉多州东南部开展了蚊虫监测。目的是确定该地区是否存在已定居的[蚊种1]和[蚊种2]种群。从科罗拉多州拉琼塔收集的卵中培育出了一只雌性[蚊种1],但未检测到[蚊种2]。从卵和/或幼虫中培育出了另外三种蚊种:[蚊种3]、[蚊种4]和[蚊种5],[蚊种3]和[蚊种4]分别在奥特罗县和巴卡县首次被检测到,这些成为了科罗拉多州新的县级记录。这两个蚊种的检测数量都非常少,表明其种群密度极低或偶尔被引入科罗拉多州东南部。
