coordinate is the midpoint of four provided values
Environment
Habitat: tropical/subtropical moist broadleaf forest
Substrate: ground surface
MAT: 26.0
MAP: 2600.0
Habitat comments: "The collecting localities are... within a phytoecological region of pioneer formations with palm trees... which is intermixed with areas of ecological tension between pioneer formations and upland terra firme forests" but "Mosquito specimens were mostly collected inside the riparian forest along existing and/or newly created trails, perpendicular to the river banks, and within continuous upland terra firme forest"
Methods
Life forms: mosquitoes
Sites: 4
Sampling methods: no design,sweep nets,light traps,malaise traps,other traps,hand capture
Sample size: 17279 individuals
Years: 2010
Seasons: wet or monsoon
Sampling comments: collecting involved "a variety of capture methods, including Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) downdraft light traps with different types of light sources (incandescent lamp [CDC-Inc], ultraviolet fluorescent tube [CDC-UVtube], and ultraviolet light-emitting diodes [CDC-UVled]); flight intercept traps (Malaise, Shannon, Suspended); and sweeping with nets... Immature mosquitoes were collected from aquatic habitats found along trails, in the same areas where adults were captured"; material was "sampled during the rainy season, with high water levels, from June 4 to 10, 2010"
