Distributional records from the U.S. Air Force ovitrapping program--1991.
During 1991, ovitrapping was conducted by 37 U.S. Air Force installations. Sixteen installations were positive for Aedes albopictus. The number (449) and percent (21.5%) of Ae. albopictus-positive ovipaddles was almost 4 times that of the previous year. The collections of Ae. albopictus at Columbus Air Force Base (AFB), MS, and Shaw AFB, SC, are new records for Lowndes and Sumter counties, respectively. Nine installations were positive for Ae. aegypti; 21 were positive for Ae. triseriatus.
