Co-occurring species | Potential for interactiona | Evidence of negative effects on native species or larval competition? | Reference(s) |
---|---|---|---|
Aedes albopictus (Skuse) | +++ | Some habitat segregation between the two species; Aedes japonicus inferior competitor in lab and field studies | 7, 8, 10, 52 |
Aedes atropalpus (Coquillett) | +++ | Reduction or elimination in rock pools and tires; Aedes japonicus marginally better competitor in lab studies? | 4, 5, 8–11, 15, 35, 50, 94 |
Aedes hendersoni (Cockerell) | + | N/A | N/A |
Aedes triseriatus (Say) | +++ | Reduction in tires; little evidence of asymmetric competition in lab studies | 1, 5, 11, 15, 35, 40, 45, 50 |
Anopheles barberi (Coquillett) | + | N/A | N/A |
Anopheles punctipennis (Say) | ++ | Displacement in tires? (Unexpectedly absent in surveys) | 103 |
Anopheles quadrimaculatus (Say) | + | N/A | N/A |
Culex pipiens (Linnaeus) | +++ | Reduction in some containers; little evidence of asymmetric competition in lab studies | 35, 60 |
Culex restuans (Theobald) | +++ | Reduction in tires and other artificial containers | 5, 71 |
Culex salinarius (Coquillett) | + | N/A | N/A |
Culex territans (Coquillett) | ++ | N/A | N/A |
Culiseta melanura (Coquillett) | + | N/A | N/A |
Orthopodomyia signifera (Coquillett) | ++ | N/A | N/A |
Toxorhynchites rutilus (Dyar & Knab) | ++ | Predator on Aedes j. japonicus; evidence of negative impact on Aedes j. japonicus in lab and field studies | 53, 71 |
Low (+) to high (+++) potential based on overlapping use of container types and high relative abundance of each species.
