The mosquito Aedes togoi was found in the northernmost part of Georgia Strait, expanding its known Pacific Northwest range. This discovery marks the 14th location for this invasive species in the region.

Area of Science:

  • Medical entomology
  • Invasive species research
  • Pacific Northwest ecology

Background:

  • Aedes togoi is an invasive mosquito species with a known distribution in the Pacific Northwest.
  • Understanding the geographic range of invasive species is crucial for predicting their spread and impact.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To document a new northern locality for Aedes togoi in the Pacific Northwest.
  • To map the current known distribution of Aedes togoi in the region.

Main Methods:

  • Field observation of mosquito nuisance.
  • Geographic mapping of species occurrence.

Main Results:

  • Aedes togoi were identified as a biting nuisance on a sailing boat offshore.
