Abstract

Aedes taeniorhynchus is normally associated in high numbers with salt marshes along coastal areas in North, Central and South America. It has the potential to be a critical vector of important human and animal arboviruses. St. Louis encephalitis, Everglades, and West Nile viruses have been isolated from it in Florida, and can transmit epizootic strains of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis, eastern equine encephalitis, and Rift Valley fever viruses in the lab. To better identify the threat from these viruses we are attempting to better understand the spatio-temporal patterns of Aedes taeniorhynchus in Florida
