Fig. 1: Physical-chemical characteristics of the water in urban and natural larval habitats of Culex pipiens in three regions of Chile: water temperature (Tw), conductivity (C), total dissolved solids (STD) and salinity (SAL). Values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Different letters indicates differences in the Tukey test (α = 0.05).

Fig. 2: Seasonal variation of larval density of Culex pipiens in a small artificial pool in central Chile. Autumn (A), Winter (W), Spring (Sp), Summer (S).

Fig. 3: Relationship between larval density of Culex pipiens and temperature and relative humidity in a small artificial pool in Central Chile.

Fig. 4: Three dimensional representation (Ɛ) of the Culex pipiens larval niche based on physical-chemical characteristics of the water from larval habitats in three regions of Chile.
