Abstract
Three years of sampling (2007-2009) of adult mosquitoes in the area of
Vojvodina (Serbia) by dry ice baited CDC traps has provided information on
mosquito species composition, prevalence and seasonal activity. A total of
58,247 adult mosquitoes were collected comprising twenty species belonging to
the following genera: Anopheles Meigen (Diptera: Culicidae), Aedes Meigen,
Culex L, Culiseta Felt and Mansonia Blanchard. The seven most common species
collected during this study were: Culex pipiens L. complex (35.6%), Aedes
vexans (Meigen) (33.4%), Aedes sticticus (Meigen) (15.2%), Anopheles
maculipennis Meigen complex (4%), Mansonia richiardii (Ficalbi) (3.8%), Aedes
cinereus Meigen (3.6%), Aedes pulchritarsis (Rondani) (3%) which made up 98%
of all specimens. Seasonal population dynamics differed between years and
between mosquito species in relation to wetland, urban and forest habitats,
and was primarily influenced by the water level of the Danube, Sava and Tisa
rivers, precipitation and temperature.
