n = Total number of adult mosquitoes; Small letters indicate comparisons of values (Kruskal–Wallis with Student–Newman–Keuls test a posteriori; p ≤ 0.05) in the same column, whereas capital letters indicate comparisons of values (Kruskal–Wallis with Student–Newman–Keuls test a posteriori; p ≤ 0.05) in the same row. Values identified by the same letter types are not significantly different (p > 0.05); The Mann–Whitney test (p ≤ 0.05) was used to assess interpopulational differences between males and females; NA = Not applicable.
