Abstract
Aedeomyia (Aedeomyia) squamipennis is a tropical mosquito that has only recently been observed in the USA. Its natural range of Central and South America has been expanded to several Caribbean islands and mainland Florida in recent years and has now been found in the Florida Keys. Despite its association with the Gamboa virus and avian malaria, concern for establishment and vectorial capacity is diminished in the Florida Keys due to Ae. squamipennis's lack of preferred larval habitat.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association (JAMCA) encourages the submission
of previously unpublished manuscripts contributing to the advancement of knowledge of
mosquitoes and other arthropod vectors. The Journal encourages submission of a wide range of
scientific studies that include all aspects of biology, ecology, systematics, and integrated pest
management. Manuscripts exceeding normal length (e. g., monographs) may be accepted for
publication as a supplement to the regular issue.
