Mosquitoes in the Culex pipiens complex are principal vectors of West Nile virus (WNV) in the Northeastern United States. Understanding the life-history parameters and feeding behavior of these mosquitoes is critical in determining vector capacity and human exposure. I used age structure and mortality rates to determine the life-history parameters of Delaware's Culex pipiens population. Further, I associated blood host preference with their genetic makeup using multilocus microsatellite genetic analysis. Mosquitoes were collected at locations that previously showed elevated WNV epizootic activity in 2003 and 2004. Parity rates (i.e. proportion of females that oviposited at least one egg raft...

The first comprehensive scholarly treatment of bed bugs since 1966 This book updates and expands on existing material on bed bugs with an emphasis on the worldwide resurgence of both the common bed bug, Cimex lectularius L., and the tropical bed bug, Cimex hemipterus (F.). It incorporates extensive new data from a wide range of basic and applied research, as well as the recently observed medical, legal, and regulatory impacts of bed bugs. Advances in the Biology and Management of Modern Bed Bugs offers new information on the basic science and advice on using applied management strategies and bed bug bioassay techniques. It also presents cutting-edge information on the major impacts that bed ...
