  • Title: Isolation of eastern equine encephalitis virus from Aedes sollicitans during an epizootic in southern New Jersey.
    Author: Crans WJ, McNelly J, Schulze TL, Main A.
    Journal: J Am Mosq Control Assoc; 1986 Mar; 2(1):68-72. PubMed ID: 2853203.
    Abstract:
    Eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEE) was isolated from the salt marsh mosquito, Aedes sollicitans, collected from coastal areas of New Jersey on 3 occasions during the late summer and fall of 1982. The isolations were made at a time when local Culiseta melanura were either undergoing a population increase or exhibiting high levels of EEE virus. Although no human cases were reported during the epizootic period, the data lend support to the hypothesis that Ae. sollicitans is capable of functioning as an epidemic vector in the coastal areas of New Jersey where human cases of EEE have been most common.
