The Isolation of St. Louis Virus from Trinidad Mosquitoes1

C. R. Anderson, T. H. G. Aitken, W. G. Downs AND L. Spence
The Trinidad Regional Virus Laboratory, Port-of-Spain, Trinidad, British West Indies

St. Louis encephalitis virus has been isolated from three ground pool-breeding species of mosquitoes collected in Trinidadian forests. Identity was established by comparison with a known strain of St. Louis virus and other related viruses. These represent the first strains of St. Louis virus known to be isolated from mosquitoes outside of the continental United States.


1 The studies and observations upon which this paper is based were conducted with the support and under the auspices of the Government of Trinidad and Tobago, the Colonial Development and Welfare Scheme and The Rockefeller Foundation.
