Comment: 366 mosquitoes (1.5% of all specimens collected) were identified as Ae. vexans . This species was infrequently collected, but specimens could be found throughout the warm season, with a peak of activity in August. However, Ae. vexans has been found to emerge in large numbers after floods ( Schäfer & Lundström 2009), so their low numbers in this study could be due to sampling bias.
