The Toxo mosquito, when in a larvae state, has the nature to feed on the comparatively smaller sized anopheles and culex larvae. |

The spraying is intended to kill the culex pipiens mosquito, the species that carries the virus and is most active between dusk and dawn. |
|
Some experts theorize that a wet winter followed by drought creates ideal conditions for the culex mosquitoes that spread the virus. |
|
In addition, two isolates of Western equine encephalitis virus were found in the common culex mosquitoes, and St. Louis and Western virus activity was found in chicken flocks. |
|
In many municipalities, standing water in catch basins comprise a major source of standing water suitable for breeding for culex pipiens which is a species of major concern for the spread of West Nile virus. |
|
The latest invasive mosquito to arrive here is the culex modestus which carries the West Nile virus. |
|
The virus occurs naturally in many birds and is transmitted by Culex mosquitoes. |
|
However, the mozzie carrier, called Culex species, only brings the virus to us, the actual host is pigs and some waterbirds. |
|
Culex quinquefasciatus breeds in highly polluted water. |
|
Culex mosquitoes do not typically feed on humans, as they prefer birds, but they would play a major role in transmitting the West Nile Virus should it come to the area. |
|
For example, Culex and Aedes mosquitoes transmit West Nile Virus from birds to humans. |
|
He said the infected mosquitoes are of the Culex genus, which are most likely to be active from dusk to dawn. |
|
Houseflies and also mosquitoes of the species Culex pipiens — the common house mosquito — began to show resistance to the sprays. |
|
Culex mosquitoes, the principal vectors, are prolific in rural areas where their larvae breed in ground pools, especially in flooded rice fields. |
|
Culex mosquitoes usually lay their eggs at night and they stick together due to a special sculpture on the sides of the eggs that form a raft approximately 64 millimetres long and 38 millimetres wide. |
|
Culex species comprised a majority of the Culicid population along the tree lines. |

Commensalism adaptation and gen flow mosquitoes of the Culex pipiens complex in different habitats. |
|
Culex gelidus Theobald has emerged into dominance as a major mosquito vector with potential to transmit a number of viruses of public health importance. |
|
In our experiments we identified hexanol, and a related odor, butanal, as strong inhibitors of CO2-sensitive neurons in Culex mosquitoes. |
|
In the female of Culex the tentoria arise in front of the border of the occipital foramen and ascend at an angle of twenty-five degrees with the floor of the head. |
