两种入侵蚊子,埃及伊蚊和白纹伊蚊,在A.白纹伊蚊我们调查了种间取食干扰的可能性,雄性蚊子与雌性蚊子在这些物种内和之间的相互作用。A.当雌性埃及伊蚊暴露于A.白纹伊蚊雄性,但当暴露于同种时未观察到变化。A.白纹伊蚊的取食不受这两个物种雄性的影响。这些行为的潜在后果进行了讨论的背景下,其他已知的种间效应,所有这些似乎有利于位移的A。埃及伊蚊A.白纹伊蚊
Two invasive mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, have been interacting during the course of a rapid range expansion by A. albopictus. We investigated the potential for interspecific feeding interference by male mosquitoes interacting with females within and between these species. A. aegypti feeding on both sugar and blood was suppressed when females of this species were exposed to A. albopictus males, but no change was observed when exposed to conspecifics. A. albopictus feeding was not affected by males of either species. The potential consequences of these behaviors are discussed within the context of other known interspecific effects, all of which appear to favor the displacement of A. aegypti by A. albopictus.
