description: Additional file 1: Table S1. Univariate analysis suggests 4 independent variables may provide unique characteristics in determining the preferred habitat(s) of Cx. salinarius within the NWMAD during the summers of 2018 and 2019. Further analysis is not warranted at this time, given the small number of specimens collected. Values in parenthesis indicate one standard error from the mean. No evidence of multicollinearity was present. Table S2. Correlogram testing for multicollinearity among 4 independent variables associated with Cx. salinarius habitat preference within the HLC study regions of NWMAD. Figure S1. Cumulative HLC collections by mosquito genus for each of the 55 hexagons in the study region. Table S3. Detailed mosquito collection information by genus, trap type, overall trapping effort and submitting agency. Table S4. AOverall number of female mosquitoes collected by trap night for each study location by year, trap type and genus. B Trap night information from Southern Cook County was limited to collections by light trap for the years 2005-2008. Figure S1. Cumulative HLC collections by mosquito genus for each of the 55 hexagons in the study region. Figure S2. Cumulative female mosquito collections by genus from MMAD, NWMAD and Southern Cook County study locations. Figure S3. Cumulative female Culex spp. collections by light trap or gravid trap from MMAD, NWMAD and Southern Cook County study locations. Only trap type data for Culex spp. mosquitoes was available for all 3 collection sources. Figure S4. Mosaic plot displaying frequency of genus and species collected by human landing catch by study location (HexID: n = 55). For specific coordinates of each mosquito collection location within each HexID, contact the corresponding author. Figure S5. Mosaic plot of frequency of mosquito landing location on body of human collector by genus and species. The diagrams on the far right of the figure display the most common landing locations by nuisance (top) and Culex species (bottom) mosquitoes. Figure S6. Box plot distribution of average weather factors (temperature, humidity, and wind speed) during HLCs by genus and species of collected mosquitoes. Temperature and wind speed were recorded by regionally reported value and by a handheld anemometer/thermometer combination device for specific, local values. Figure S7. Suitable larval habitats within the average female Cx. salinarius flight range (2.2 km) for each collection from the city of Chicago, MMAD and HLC study regions (55 1-km-wide hexagons within the NWMAD). Text S1.
