| small plot evaluation of a sustained-release sand granule formulation of methoprene (san 810 i 1.3 gr) for control of aedes taeniorhynchus. | a sand granule formulation of methoprene (san 810 i 1.3 gr) was tested in outdoor intermittently flooded pools as a pre- and postflood treatment for the control of aedes taeniorhynchus. in field test 1, pre- and postflood treatments were equally effective. inhibition of emergence in mosquitoes exceeded 90% for one and 3 flood/dry cycles when san 810 i 1.3 gr was applied at rates of 2.8 and 5.6 kg/ha, respectively. in field test 2, > 90% inhibition of emergence was achieved only when san 810 i 1. ... | 1993 | 8350071 |
| eggshells as an index of aedine mosquito production. 2: relationship of aedes taeniorhynchus eggshell density to larval production. | to test if eggshell density could be used as an index of aedine mosquito production, we compared eggshell density with the larval production of aedes taeniorhynchus in florida mangrove basin forests. quantitative (n = 7) and categorical (n = 34) estimates of annual larval production were regressed against the number of eggshells per cc of soil. significant regressions were obtained in both instances. larval production was concentrated in zones with the highest eggshell density. we suggest that e ... | 1992 | 1583487 |
| eggshells as an index of aedine mosquito production. 1: distribution, movement and sampling of aedes taeniorhynchus eggshells. | the distribution of aedes taeniorhynchus eggshells in florida mangrove basin forests was determined and used to design a sampling plan. eggshells were found in 10/11 sites (91%), with a mean +/- se density of 1.45 +/- 0.75/cc; density did not change significantly year to year. highest densities were located on the sloping banks of hummocks, ponds and potholes. eggshells were less clumped in distribution than eggs and larvae and thus required a smaller sample size for a given precision level. whi ... | 1992 | 1583486 |
| distribution and sampling of aedes taeniorhynchus (diptera: culicidae) eggs in a florida mangrove forest. | the distribution of aedes taeniorhynchus (wiedemann) eggs in a florida mangrove basin forest was quantified and used to design a sampling plan. eggs were found in detritus-rich soil with the highest densities in a band at elevations 0.1-0.2 m above the water line. dispersion indices (k and taylor's b) indicated that the eggs were aggregated; 14 of 16 populations tested fit the negative binomial distribution. a fixed-size sampling plan using systematic sampling was designed from these data. | 1991 | 2056510 |
| collection and separation of aedes taeniorhynchus eggshells from mangrove soil. | two methods to separate eggshells of aedes taeniorhynchus from mangrove soil were compared. selective sieving, using nested sieves with 0.185 and 0.170-mm screen openings, and water flotation both removed over 99% of the soil. however, water flotation recovered a significantly greater percentage of eggshells (62% vs. 34%). there was no significant difference in the recovery rate of viable eggs and new and old eggshells using water flotation. | 1991 | 2045802 |
| effects of controlled burning on aedes taeniorhynchus eggs in an abandoned rice impoundment in south carolina. | controlled burning reduced the number of viable eggs in an aedes population. the effectiveness of the burn was related to the amount of rainfall, surface moisture and dry vegetation. a greater reduction in viable eggs occurred when the burn was close to the ground. variable results were achieved if the surface was moist but there was a significant reduction in the number of viable eggs, due to a heavy amount of dry vegetation accompanied by low rainfall. | 1990 | 2230784 |
| nectar-feeding habits of aedes taeniorhynchus. | aedes taeniorhynchus were collected on the wing at several times during the day and night, in indian river and brevard county, florida. nonblooded females were individually analyzed for fructose and glycogen. fructose content of mosquitoes collected early in the morning and held without food during the day diminished to approximately the same level as in mosquitoes collected late in the afternoon. however, fructose content of mosquitoes collected before sunset and held without food overnight dim ... | 1990 | 2370536 |
| small plot test of sustained-release altosid (methoprene) pellets against aedes taeniorhynchus in brackish water. | four percent methoprene pellets applied at a rate of 2.2 kg/ha effectively controlled adult aedes taeniorhynchus emergence (93%) for over 3 weeks. efficacy declined to 38% 4 weeks posttreatment. at a rate of 4.5 kg/ha, 95% control was maintained for 34 days with the exception of the 5th week when only 72% control was observed. | 1990 | 2324717 |
| chronic pruritic eruption in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome associated with increased antibody titers to mosquito salivary gland antigens. | five of seven patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (aids) who had pruritus and a chronic, nonspecific-appearing skin eruption had increased antibody titers to antigens in the salivary glands of aedes taeniorhynchus, a salt marsh mosquito common to south florida. we hypothesize that the pruritus and skin lesions in patients with aids represent a form of chronic "recall" reaction. increased antibody titers to mosquito salivary gland antigens may be a consequence of nonspecific b cell a ... | 1989 | 2569000 |
| evaluation of equipment modifications and dosage rates of ground ulv applications of naled against aedes taeniorhynchus in a florida citrus grove. | efficiency of ground-applied naled (dibrom 14), based on caged mosquito bioassays in a moderately vegetated coastal southeastern florida citrus grove, proved to be significantly associated with downwind distance. however, association analysis between wind speed, temperature or relative humidity revealed no correlation between these meteorological factors and mosquito mortality. tests conducted with 3 of the commonly used ulv machines demonstrated no significant differences in efficiency. equipme ... | 1988 | 3251479 |
