Mosquitoes in central Florida collected DNA from 86 wildlife species, offering a new way to track biodiversity.
A University of Florida study shows mosquitoes in central Florida’s DeLuca Preserve collected DNA from 86 vertebrate species, including deer, coyotes, eagles, and gopher tortoises, offering a non-invasive way to monitor biodiversity.
Over eight months, researchers analyzed over 2,000 blood meals from 21 mosquito species, detecting nearly all local wildlife except the rare Florida panther.
The method, effective during the wet season, could replace labor-intensive tracking techniques, aiding conservation and ecosystem monitoring.
