Entomophthora aguatica sp. n. infecting larvae and pupae of floodwater mosquitoes. J. Invertebr. Pathol., 13: 386-393. E. aguatica is a pathogen of larvae and pupae of Aedes canadensis and the larvae of Culiseta morsitans in woodland pools in Connecticut. No external changes are apparent in infected 4th instar larvae, although some changes in activity occur in larvae with extensive infections. Pupae killed by the fungus are identifiable by a white mat of conidiophores. Hyphal bodies are usually found in the parietal layer of the fat body, hemocoel, and nervous system. Ba6inskij, P. E.

Field and laboratory studies on the pathogenicity of the fungus Beauveria bassiana to three genera of mosquitoes. J. Invertebr. Pathol., 11: 1-7. The susceptibility of Culex tarsalis, C. pipiens, Anopheles albimanus, Aedes aegypti, Ae. sierrensis, and Ae. nigromaculis to B. bassiana was tested. In field tests, conidial dust applied to the surface of the water was the most effective method for killing larvae. When applied at 3 lb./acre, 70-95% of the C. pipiens larvae died. Aedes spp. larvae were not susceptible in the field tests; however, adults of all species were susceptible in the laboratory. Eggs exposed to conidia hatched normally. Clark, T. B. et al. (1963). Axenic culture of two trichomycetes from California mosquitoes. Nature, 197: 208-209. Rubetella sp. and R. culicis were found inhabiting the rectum of mosquito larvae. Axenic culture was successfully accomplished using blood agar medium. Mosquitos were readily infected by exposing them to older cultures with conidia forming thalli. Clark, T. B. et al. (1966). Pythium sp. (Phycomycetes: Phythiales) pathogenic to mosquito larvae. J. Invertebr. Pathol., 8: 351-354. Motile zoospores of Pythium, the only infective stage, exhibited strongly positive chemotactic response to wounds of Aedes sierrensis larvae, but were apparently in- capable of penetrating normal cuticle. Thus, wide variation of mortality rates in laboratory tests was a function of harshness of treatment and to zoospore concentration. Coluzzi, M. (1966). Experimental infections with Rubetella fungi in Anopheles gambiae and other mosquitoes. Proc. 1st Int. Congr. Parasitol. (Rome), 1: 592-593. Second instar larvae of laboratory colonies of Culex pipiens, Aedes aegypti, and Anopheles gambiae were exposed to 4th instar skins of larvae infected with Rubetella (inopinata?). Ninety-three to 100% of the prepupae became infected. No changes of vitality of C. pipiens and Ae. aegypti were observed. Twenty-seven per cent. (range = 12-87%) of the A. gambiae died. Death was the result of occlusion of the rectal ampulla. Couch, J. N. (1935). A new saprophytic species of Lagenidium, with notes on other forms. Mycologia, 27: 376-387. Couch, J. N. (1960).

Nine strains of Lagenidium from the United States and India were examined and all were determined to be L. giganteum. Larvae of 11 mosquito species were sus- ceptible to L. giganteum in the laboratory. 165 Couch, J. N. et al. (1974). New fungus which attacks mosquitoes and related Diptera. Mycologia, 66(2): 374-379. Culicinomyces clavosporus, a new genus and species, is described from Anopheles quadri- maculatus. The infections were discovered in a laboratory colony reared with lake water from North Carolina. The fungus is culturable on a wide variety of artificial media. All larval stages are susceptible. Infection probably starts by the ingestion of conidia and death usually occurs within 60 hours after exposure. Infection experiments revealed the susceptibility of 10 other species of mosquitos.

Culex pipiens adults were frequently found infected by Entomophthora near Moscow. Experimental infection of the mosquitos was successful. After testing a number of mosquito species, including Aedes dorsalis, A. aegypti, Anopheles maculipennis messiae, A. m. atroparvus, the Entomophthora proved to be specific for Culex pipiens.

Susceptibility to entomophthorosis of preimaginal stages and adults Culex pipiens L. mosquitoes. Med. Parazitol. Parazit. Bolezni, 39(6): 694-698. Conidia of Entomophthora sp. were used to experimentally infect Culex pipiens. Insects dying of entomophthorosis were capable of infecting healthy mosquitos for 6-7 days from onset of conidia elimination. Adults were found to be most susceptible with females dying more frequently (64.6-100%) than males (33.3-66.6%). Pupae (63.0-88.4%) and fourth instar larvae (24.6%) were also susceptible; however, younger instars could not be infected. From the artificially infected mosquitos, all stages of the fungus were obtained: hyphal bodies, conidia, and dormant spores. Gol'berg, A. M. (1973).

Aedes detritus larvae naturally infected with F. oxysporum were collected from marshy areas in southern France. In the laboratory, A. detritus and Culex pipiens pipiens larvae were infected by conidia obtained from cultures and diseased bodies. More than 80% died, and injured or young larvae were the most susceptible. Spores germinated in the intestinal lumen and the mycelium invaded all tissues. Hati, A. K. & Ghosh, S. M. (1965). Aspergillus parasiticus infection in adult mosquitoes. Bull. Calcutta Sch. Trop. Med., 13(1): 18-19. Growth of a fungus was noticed from thorax to abdomen of 3 species of adult mosquitos (Culex gelidus, C. fatigans, and Anopheles subpictus) collected near Calcutta. From cultures, the fungus was identified and subcultures were used to infect C. fatigans. The symptoms produced were similar to those of the naturally infected mosquitos. Howard, L. 0. et al. (1912).

(In Russian, Eng. sum.) Adults and pupa C. pipiens were found infected with E. conglomerata from June to end of September in filtration fields, and other places with standing water. Although 15.6% of the females attacking near a reservoir were infected, no infected specimens were found in a village 700-8000 m away. Jettmar, H. M. von. (1947).

Under optimum rearing conditions, A. parasiticum does not cause mortality of Aedes aegypti larvae. However if starved, the mortality rate of infected larvae was sig- nificantly greater than the controls. Kupriyanova, E. S. (1966a). Entomophthora fungus parasitizing mosquitoes of the Culex pipiens L. complex. Zool. Zhur., 45(5): 675-678. (Russian, Eng. sum.) C. pipiens, breeding in filter beds of a sewage disposal system near Moscow, were found to be infected by E. conglomerata. The fungus infects mosquitos in adult stage or at the moment of eclosion from pupae. Healthy adults may become infected when they visit water bodies for oviposition. 167 Kupriyanova, E. S. (1966b). Parasitization of mosquitoes of the Culex pipiens L. complex by fungi of the order Entomophthorales.

Third instar larvae of C. p. quinquefasciatus were not susceptible to the fungus; however, it did grow in one 3rd instar A. taeniorhynchus. Pupae and adults of both species were also susceptible. Histological examination revealed the penetration of the insect cuticle by the fungal germ tubes. The fungus was detected in the connective tissue of an experimentally infected white mouse. Lowe, R. E. et al. (1968). Entomophthora coronata as a pathogen of mosquitoes. J. Invertebr. Pathol., 11: 506-507. Infected adult Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus mosquitos were found in a laboratory colony in Florida. One of the first signs of abnormality was a drastic reduction in egg pro- duction. Histopathological examinations revealed that the fungus had invaded all parts of the infected bodies. Macfie, J. W. S. (1917). Fungal infections of mosquito larvae. Rep. Accra Lab. (1916), 76-80.

Laboratory studies on a new fungal pathogen of mosquitoes. Mosq. News, 33(1): 54-60. Motile zoospores of Lagenidium giganteum (see Umphlett, 1973) are normally ingested and probably enter the tissues of the mosquito larvae through the anterior portion of the digestive tract. Sporangial formation and larval death are usually simultaneous, occurring about 60 hours after infection. Larvae of several species of Aedes and Culex were susceptible but none of the Anopheles were. There was no loss of infectivity after passage through different host species. Younger larvae were more susceptible than older ones and no infected adults were found. McCray, E. M. et al. (1973b). Laboratory observations and field tests with Lagenidium against California mosquitoes. Proc. and Papers of 41st Ann. Conf. Calif. Mosq. Control Assoc., p. 123-128. Laboratory observations of the life cycle of L. giganteum revealed two modes of action. In a permanent body of water, the fungus produces asexual zoospores which are released from the infected larvae to infect other larvae and the cycle is repeated. In inter- mittently dry and flooded areas, the fungus goes through a sexual cycle and produces resting oospores which germinate when rewetted. Field tests in both types of locations resulted in dramatically reduced mosquito populations. No infections were found in 1400 other aquatic organisms from the treated sites. Molliard, M. (1918).

(G, e) Adults of Culex pipiens infected by Entomophthora conglomerata (see Weiser and Batko, 1966) were collected in Czechoslovakia. The infected mosquitos occurred in damp cellars or similar places in southern Moravia. Infections occurred yearly in the same places but spread little. The mosquitos entered the cellars in the fall and nearly all died during the winter. C. annulata were not infected. Novak, D. (1967). Beobachtungen zur Verbreitung von Mykosen bei StechmUcken. Zeitschrift fUr Tropenmedizin und Parasitologie, 18: 488-491. Mortality of overwintering Culex pipiens pipiens adults due to Entomophthora destruens was observed at irregular intervals for 6 years at two sites. Temperatures ranged from 1 to 200C and relative humidities from 45 to 100%. Infected specimens were collected during all seasons of the year. Infection levels, in most cases, were 50% or greater. Dead mosquitos were found on brick, wood, rubber, and iron substrates. Spores survived 6-7 months in cool, damp, humid environments. Heat, dryness, and fresh paint destroyed the fungus. Novak, D. (1971). Weiterer Beobactungen zur Verbreitung von Mykosen bei StechmUcken von Culex pipiens. Biologia (Bratisl.), 28(8): 643-645. (G, e, p) In two cellars in which mosquitos regularly overwintered, many were found to be infected by Entomophthora destruens (see Weiser & Batko, 1966). Mortality due to this fungus was greatest in the autumn months when as many as 85% died. Nowakowski, L. (1883).

J. Invertebr. Pathol., 22: 143-147. B. brongniartii (= tenella) was isolated from naturally infected Aedes sierrensis mosquitos captured in California. Other species of Aedes, Culex, and Culiseta were also susceptible in laboratory tests. The mortality rate of A. sierrensis was not correlated to inoculation concentration, but correlations were observed in tests with other species. Mortality percentage was influenced by incubation temperature and early instars were the most susceptible stages. In field trials, significant reductions of emerging A. sierrensis adults (53-71% over controls) were observed in treated tree holes. Rioux, J. A. & Achard, F. (1956).

Natural infections of Entomophthora occur in both larvae and adults and observations indicate that significant control can be achieved. Beauveria and Metarrhizium are not normally associated with mosquitos, so require repeated applications for use in control. Roberts, D. W. (1974). Fungal infections of mosquitoes, p. 143-193.

Larval Culicidae (Anopheles annulipes, An. amictus hilli, Aedes australis and Culex pipiens fatigans), Chironomidae (Chironomus sp.), and Ceratopogonidae (Dasyhelea and Bezzia) were susceptible. Another dipteran, Psychodidae (Telmatoscopus albipunctatus) was not susceptible. Caddis-fly larvae (Trichoptera), dragonfly naiads (Zygoptera and Anisoptera), freshwater shrimp (Atyidae), and Gambusia fish were all nonsusceptible. Sweeney, A. W. (1975b). The mode of infection of the insect pathogenic fungus Culicinomyces in larvae of the mosquito Culex fatigans. Australian Jour. Zool., 23: 49-57. The initiation and development of infection by an Australian Culicinomyces sp. in Culex pipiens fatigans larvae was followed by dissection and by histology. The infection sites were the foregut and hindgut, and not the exterior integument. After death conidia were produced on the external surface of the cadaver by conidiophores which penetrated from the hemocoel. Sweeney, A. W. et al. (1973). A fungal pathogen for mosquito larvae with potential as a microbial insecticide. Search, 4(8): 344-345. (WHO/VBC/73.444, WHO/MAL/73.805.) A fungal parasite was isolated from Anopheles amictus hilli. It appears to be a new pathogen of aquatic Diptera, but it resembles the common terrestrial insect pathogenic fungus Metarrhizium anisopliae. Mosquito larvae of three genera (Anopheles, Culex, and Aedes) are susceptible to infection. Infection by ingestion is effective against mosquito larvae which feed non-selectively. Prolonged subculturing did not lead to loss of pathogenicity. Sweeney, A. W. & Panter, C. (1974). The pathogenicity of the fungus Culicinomyces to mosquito larvae in a natural field habitat. Unpublished World Health Organization document WHO/VBC/74.470, 2 pp. Spores of Culicinomyces sp. from Australia were introduced into two rock pools (6 and 40 litres, 106 and 105 spores/ml, respectively), which contained naturally occurring populations of Aedes rupestris. Infected larvae were collected daily for 6 days, at which time the pools were flushed by heavy rain. The percentage of larvae infected was not determined, but the experiment established that infection could occur in a natural mosquito habitat as well as in the laboratory. Teernstra-Eeken, M. H. & Engel, A. (1967). Notes on entomophthorous fungi on Heleomyzidae and Culicidae (Diptera). J. Invertebr. Pathol., 9, 431-432. Entomophthora spp. were found parasitizing a population of Culex pipiens which was overwintering in caves in the Netherlands. By the beginning of February 92-97% of the population was dead.

The susceptibility of Culex restuans to L. giganteum (Umphlett, 1973) was tested. At low dosages, younger larvae were most susceptible, but over 80% of the larvae of all ages died at high dosages. Umphlett, C. J. & McCray, E. M. jr (1975). A brief review of the involvements of Lagenidium, an aquatic fungus parasite, with arthropods. Marine Fisheries Review, 37: 61-64. Several species of Lagenidium have been reported as parasites of arthropods including mosquitos. L. giganteum has been shown to be a virulent pathogen of several species of mosquitos. However, more than 1400 acquatic non-target organisms (small crustaceans and insects) from sites where L. giganteum had been introduced were found not to be infected. It has also been shown not to be pathogenic to small mammals. Weiser, J. & Batko, A. (1966). A new parasite of Culex pipiens L. Entomophthora destruens sp. nov. (Phycomycetes, Entomophthoraceae).

It can be cultured on egg-yolk medium. (See Novak, 1965, and Weiser & Novak, 1964.) Weiser, J. & Novak, D. (1964). Auftreten vom Mykosen bei StechmUcken. Entomophaga Mem. Hors Ser., 2: 149-150. A fungus infection caused by Entomophthora destruens (Weiser & Batko, 1966) is common in overwintering populations of Culex pipiens in Czechoslovakia. More than 50% of natural shelters and basements are infected and a steadily increasing infection occurs in the hibernating population. Although present in the shelters, Culiseta Theobaldia sp. mosquitos are not infected. Williams, M. C. & Lichtwardt, R. A. (1972). Infection of Aedes aegypti larvae by axenic cultures of the fungal genus Smittium (Trichomycetes). Am. J. Bot., 59: 189-193 Spores produced by cultures isolated from various locations and dipteran hosts were fed to the mosquito larvae. Some host but no geographical specificity was found. This fungus apparently has little effect on larvae reared under optimum conditions.
