Table 2. Estimated reduction in daily survivorship rate in small mosquitoes.
Species | Environmental stressor | Reduction in female daily survivorship rate | Study type | Reference |
---|---|---|---|---|
Culex tarsalis | intraspecific competition | 0–3% $ | laboratory | [53] |
Aedes albopictus | intraspecific competition | 2–4%* | laboratory | [41] |
Aedes aegypti | diet modification | 3–4% | field | [39] |
Aedes albopictus | intraspecific competition | 0–1% # | laboratory | [38] |
Aedes aegypti | intraspecific competition | 1–2% # | laboratory | [38] |
$ based on larval density per container
* derived from mean LT50 and LT90 values from water + blood treatment
# estimated from mean survivorship of low density and high density treatments at 85% humidity
