Role of the predaceous mosquito (Diptera: Culicidae) in treehole ecosystems in a Korean forest.

mosquitoes have been studied as potential biological mosquito control agents because they consume other mosquito larvae. As a top predator, species are also considered keystone predators in phytotelmata. However, limited information is available regarding , which is found in northeast Asia.

Relationships between predatory aquatic insects and mosquito larvae in residential areas in northern Thailand.

In order to elucidate the poorly understood relationships between mosquito larvae and their predatory aquatic insects in urban and suburban areas of tropical Southeast Asia, where vector-borne diseases are prevalent, aquatic insects were sampled from 14 aquatic habitats in residential areas of Chiang Mai, northern Thailand, during the rainy season (July to November) in 2016. Correlations among biological variables, densities of major predatory aquatic insect groups (i.e.
