The dispersal of Culex quinquefasciatus was studied near Norco, California in a periurban situation of southern California. Concurrent studies indicated that host-seeking females were most active up to one hour after sunset. A mark-release-recapture technique was used to document a mean distance traveled of 0.91 km in 12 hr (the first flight period) and a cumulative distance of 1.27 km after 36 hr (following the second flight period). Nearly 0.32% of 47,750 marked females were recaptured. A majority of the population moved with the prevailing wind. Unmarked females were captured at all trapping locations in the study.
在加利福尼亚州南部诺科附近的城郊环境中，对致倦库蚊的扩散情况进行了研究。同时进行的研究表明，寻找宿主的雌蚊在日落后一小时内最为活跃。采用标记释放再捕获技术记录到，在12小时（第一个飞行时段）内平均飞行距离为0.91千米，36小时后（第二个飞行时段之后）累计飞行距离为1.27千米。在47750只做了标记的雌蚊中，近0.32%被重新捕获。大多数蚊子随盛行风移动。在研究中的所有诱捕地点都捕获到了未做标记的雌蚊。
