Adult female density, parity status, and wing length were determined weekly for a population of Coquillettidia perturbans in an area enzootic for eastern equine encephalitis virus in central Ohio. Samples were collected in CO2-baited CDC miniature light traps from the first week in June through the 2nd week of September 1992. Population density indicated a single emergence peak during the 2nd week in July. However, parity rates showed 2 peaks, occurring in the first week of August (70.9% parous) and the 2nd week of September (55.3% parous), which suggested that there was a relatively small 2nd generation. Average wing length declined significantly over the season. The decline in size was negatively correlated with average air temperature occurring at least 6 wk before the time of emergence. Despite the seasonal decline in wing length, the low coefficient of variation for the average wing length (5.5) indicated relatively little variation in size. Comparison of parous and nulliparous female wing lengths each week suggested that there was no association between size and survival in this species.
