Aedes albopictus colonies from different geographic origins differ in their sleep and activity levels but not in the time of peak activity

This study compares sleep and activity patterns of Aedes albopictus mosquito strains from different geographic origins, finding heritable differences in activity levels but not peak activity times.

Visual threats reduce blood-feeding and trigger escape responses in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes.

This study shows that visual stimuli mimicking a human swat reduce blood-feeding in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes by triggering escape responses.

Modeling the effects of Aedes aegypti's larval environment on adult body mass at emergence

This study models how larval density affects adult body mass in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and finds larval density has a greater impact on body mass than development time.
