Seasonal larval and adult population dynamics and breeding habitat diversity of Culex theileri Theobald, 1903 (Diptera: Culicidae) in the Gölbaşı district, Ankara, Turkey

Bu araştırmada, Gölbaşı ilçesi, Mogan ve Eymir gölleri ve Imrahor Vadisi'ni kapsayan bölgede Ağustos 1995-Temmuz 1997 tarihleri arasında, Culex theileri'nin mevsimsel larva ve ergin populasyon dinamizmi, üreme habitat çeşitliliği ve kışlama tipi araştırılmış ve Cx. theileri'nin yedi farklı kategorideki habitatı (Bataklık, göl kenarı, dere kenarı, mera, hayvan ayakizi gibi) üreme habitatı olarak kullanabildiği ve bu habitatlarda yedi farklı sivrisinek türü ile birlikte bulunduğu belirlenmiştir. Larva ve ergin populasyonlarının mevsimsel dalgalanmalar yaptığı ve kışlama döneminin tam hibernasyonlu dişiler ile geçirildiği saptanmıştır

Ankara ili, Gölbaşı ilçesi' nde Culex theileri Theobald, 1903 (Diptera: Culicidae)' nin mevsimsel larva ve ergin populasyon dinamizmi ve üreme habitatı çeşitliliği

In this research, which was carried out between August 1995 and July 1997 in an area that embraces Lakes Mogan and Eymir, Imrahor Valley and the Gölbaşı district of Ankara province, the seasonal larval and adult population dynamics, breeding habitat diversity and hibernation type of Culex theileri were studied and it was determined that 7 different habitat categories, such as marshes, lake shores, creek sides, pastures and animal footprints, can be breeding habitats for Cx. theileri and that it can be associated with 7 different mosquito species in these habitats. It was also established that larval and adult populations have seasonal fluctuations and that the hibernation period was spent by females in complete hibernation.
