Host-parasite relationships of Thelohania associated with mosquitoes in louisiana (Nosematidae: Microsporidia)

Parasites of the genus Thelohania were studied in 13 species of mosquitoes collected from two parishes in southwestern Louisiana. New host records were established for Aedes grossbecki, A. sollicitans, A. sticticus, A. taeniorhynchus, Culex salinarius, Psorophora confinnis , and Anopheles bradleyi . The host-parasite relationships of the mosquitoes and associated Thelohania were classified into four types.
