“…The mosquito species and species composition observed in this study were similar to those reported recently in urban and suburban areas of Yokohama City, Kanagawa, Japan (Kosone et al, , 2005. Regarding mosquito species found in Tokyo, Kamimura (1968) reported 24 species and all mosquito species collected in this study were included. In addition to these 24 mosquito species, Anopheles lindesayi japonicus Yamada, Cx.…”

Mosquitoes were collected weekly from May 2003 to December 2013 at a pair of sites within the premises of the National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Tokyo, Japan. The mosquito trap was equipped with 1 kg dry ice and battery-operated suction mechanism. A total of 10,546 adults belonging to 7 species in 3 genera were collected in this study. Aedes albopictus and Cx. pipiens gr. were the dominant mosquitoes, composing 99.7% of the total mosquitoes collected. Six and 12 adults of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus were collected in early spring and in late summer to autumn, respectively. More Cx. pipiens gr. were collected at the high trap site near a tree canopy rather than the low trap site near the ground every year, whereas only 1 to 15% of Ae. albopictus were collected at the high trap site, indicating a difference in searching behavior between the two species. The female density of Cx. pipiens gr. was high (>10/trap/day) during early June to early August, and a high Cx. pipiens gr.-related risk is expected in this period. Density of female Ae. albopictus was high (>10/trap/day) during the 28th to 41st week, suggesting a high risk of transmission of Ae. albopictus-borne pathogens from mid-July to mid-October in Tokyo.

This study was conducted to elucidate the seasonal prevalence of adult mosquitoes and occurrence of anopheline larvae in Gimpo, Gyeonggi province, Republic of Korea. Sampling of adult mosquitoes was carried out 18 times from May to September in 2008, using light traps at six sites. A total of 48,919 individuals belonging to 16 species and 8 genera were collected. Aedes vexans nipponii (43%) was the most frequently collected, followed by Anopheles sinensis (34%) and Culex tritaeniorhynchus (14%). The seasonal prevalence of anopheline mosquitoes had a different occurrence compared to that of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus. Anopheline larvae were collected using a standard dipper (size = of 350 ml) at eight habitat types of 203 point locations. Anopheline larvae were confirmed from 138 points (63%). The average larval population per dipper was highest in the lotus plantation (6.9 individuals), followed by irrigation channel (4.5 ind.), dropwort field (3.4 ind.), fallow field (3.1 ind.), paddy field (1.8 ind.), swamp (1.4 ind.), and stream (0.2 ind.). There was no significant relationship observed between larval density and DO, pH, salinity, or distance from blood meal hosts (cowshed, pigsty, chicken-house). In the results of average nearest neighbor analysis (ANNA), the distribution of whole points for mosquito larval collection was clustered, and points with over 4.0 larvae per dipper were randomly distributed. Within the study area Haseong-myeon, those points where over 3.0 larvae were collected were of a dispersed distribution.
