ATBI Diptera TWIG
Reeves W. 2016. ATBI Diptera TWIG
"PI conducted extensive trapping for dlptera in the park, especially for species that feed on blood (such as blackflies and mosquitoes) or are ectoparasites. He is the first to document the exotic mosquito Aedes aegypti (L.) in the park, a species capable of transmitting several diseases of humans, such as yellow fever. Several state and park records were documented. An annotated checklist of blood-feeding flies was published for the park. PI also published some observations on the life history of millipedes on Clingmans Dome under this study."
