“…If S. passerina is positive for EEEV or WNV before migrating north, it is possible that this species plays a role in the reemergence of these viruses from southern to northern regions on a yearly basis ( Molaei et al 2016 , Armstrong and Andreadis 2022 ). S. americana is known to migrate from southern Florida and Central and South America northwards ( Moldenhauer and Regelski 2020 ). S. americana has been found naturally infected with WNV ( Dusek et al 2009 , CDC 2016 ).…”

Mosquito-borne diseases represent a significant threat to human and animal health in the United States. Several viruses, including West Nile, Saint Louis encephalitis, and Eastern equine encephalitis are endemic. In humans, the disease is typically detected during the summer months, but not during the winter months. The ability of these viruses to reemerge year after year is still not fully understood, but typically involves persistence in a reservoir host or vector during periods of low transmission. Mosquito species are known to overwinter at different life stages (adults, larvae, or eggs) in manufactured or natural sites. Gopher tortoise burrows are known to serve as refuge for many vertebrate and invertebrate species in pine savannas. In this study, we surveyed the interior of gopher tortoise burrows for overwintering mosquitoes. We identified 4 species (Anopheles crucians s.l., Culex erraticus, Mansonia dyari, and Uranotaenia sapphirina). Cx. erraticus was the most abundant, and its presence and abundance increased in winter months, implying that this species utilized gopher tortoise burrows for overwintering. Bloodfed Cx. erraticus and An. crucians s.l. females were detected. While An. crucians s.l. fed exclusively on the white-tailed deer, Cx. erraticus had a more diverse host range but fed primarily on the gopher tortoise. Tortoises and other long-lived reptiles like the American alligator have been shown to sustain high viremia following West Nile virus (WNV) and Eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV) infection and therefore could play a role in the maintenance of these viruses. In addition, Cx. erraticus is naturally infected with WNV and is a known bridge vector for EEEV. As such, these overwintering sites may play a role in perpetuating over-winter arboviral activity in Florida.

“…Further determination of age was not possible because the preformative molt of the Bananaquit is complete and leads to a plumage that appears similar to adult basic plumage (Johnson and Wolfe 2018). The one Northern Parula observed closely was an FCF, given the green edges on its secondaries and primaries, which are typical of retained juvenile feathers (Pyle 1997, Moldenhauer andRegelski 2020).…”

Pearly-eyed Thrashers (Margarops fuscatus) are known for their aggressive behavior toward other birds. This article provides the first record of Neotropical migratory passerines, Northern Parulas (Setophaga americana), mobbing a Pearly-eyed Thrasher while it was depredating an adult Bananaquit (Coereba flaveola). This mobbing behavior suggests the Pearly-eyed Thrasher may be a predator of Neotropical migratory passerines. This article also provides the first photographic documentation of a Pearly-eyed Thrasher in the process of depredating an adult bird, which complements previous written accounts. Keywords Margarops fuscatus, mobbing, Neotropical migratory passerines, Pearly-eyed Thrasher, predation Resumen Setophaga americana acosando a Margarops fuscatus mientras depreda un adulto de Coereba flaveola • Margarops fuscatus es conocido por su comportamiento agresivo hacia otras aves. Este artículo proporciona el primer registro del paseriforme migratorio neotropical, Setophaga americana, acosando a un individuo de Margarops fuscatus mientras depredaba a un adulto de Coereba flaveola. Este comportamiento de acoso sugiere que Margarops fuscatus puede ser un depredador de paseriformes migratorios neotropicales. Este artículo también proporciona la primera documentación fotográfica de esta especie en el proceso de depredar un ave adulta, que complementa los relatos escritos anteriores. Palabras clave acoso, depredación, Margarops fuscatus, paserinas migratorias neotropicales Résumé Paruline à collier (Setophaga americana) harcelant un Moqueur corossol (Margarops fuscatus) alors qu’il prédatait un Sucrier à ventre jaune (Coereba flaveola) adulte • Les Moqueurs corossols (Margarops fuscatus) sont connus pour leur comportement agressif envers les autres oiseaux. Cet article présente la première mention de passereaux migrateurs néotropicaux, des Parulines à collier (Setophaga americana), harcelant un Moqueur corossol alors qu’il prédatait un Sucrier à ventre jaune (Coereba flaveola) adulte. Ce comportement de harcèlement suggère que le Moqueur corossol pourrait être un prédateur de passereaux migrateurs néotropicaux. Cet article fournit également la première documentation photographique d’un Moqueur corossol en train de prédater un oiseau adulte, ce qui complète les comptes rendus écrits précédents.
