Abstract

AbstractLarval surveys were conducted in Winnipeg environs during the summers of 1967 and 1968. The species, density of larvae, the relationship between rainfall and larval abundance, and the species of pest importance were studied in detail. Aedes vexans was the most numerous mosquito found both in the larval and adult stages. Aedes dorsalis and Aedes spencerii were also of pest significance during each season. An association between the abundance of A. vexans larvae and the proximity of these to an adult blood source, mainly beef and dairy cattle, was observed.
