Population dynamic of Aedes vexans and Ochlerotatus sticticus in flooded area of the river Drava in Osijek, Croatia
Populations of adult mosquitoes occurring in Osijek area, east Croatia, were monitored from May 1995 to September 2000 using CDC traps baited with dry ice. A total of 106, 663 adults were caught, and ranged from 21, 120 in May 1995 to 0 (several times). Among that number of mosquitoes 18 species were determined. Aedes vexans was the most abundant, followed by Ochlerotatus (formerly Aedes) sticticus. Both of these 2 species have breeding site in flooded area in inundations in Osijek surroundings. Furthermore, these two species comprised 86% of total adult mosquitoes collected. Life cycle of these mosquito species and their abundance were positively correlated with water level. The maximum of these species occurred in late spring to early summer. During six years, adult mosquito populations showed significant correlation with the water level of the Drava River.
