Mosquito and biting fly surveillance on Camp Zama Army Base, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Camp Zama, Japan, and the associated military housing and depot storage areas have been occupied by the US military for over 50 years. The military base has experienced less urbanization and development during those 50 years when compared to the surrounding cities of Zama and Sagamihara. We present an annotated comparative checklist of historical records of biting flies (mosquitoes, black flies, biting midges, stable flies, and horse flies) with recent collections. Overall 24 species of biting flies have been reported from Camp Zama, with 17 of these species collected during the last 5 years. Vectors of human and veterinary pathogens were collected including Anopheles sinensis, Aedes albopictus, Culex tritaeniorhynchus, and Simulium bidentatum.
