Abstract

An investigation into the mosquito fauna breeding in container habitats in the Auckland region (New Zealand) was carried out. Special attention was given to exotic bromeliads. The results suggest that mosquitoes seem to utilize container habitats in urban and peri-urban areas to a high extent. Overall, there was an almost complete dominance of exotic mosquitoes, more specifically Ochlerotatus notoscriptus check for this species in other resources . The results provide further evidence of the major dominance of exotic mosquitoes in anthropic habitats in the Auckland region.

Keywords
