Figure 1.
Map of 2010 and 2011 mark-capture study region in suburban Chicago, Illinois.
Gravid traps are orange triangles and light traps are blue circles and the larger trap symbols represent the 12 traps that captured marked Culex mosquitoes. Not all traps shown where trapped in both years. Red concentric rings represent the seven annuli used to calculate mean distance traveled. Inset shows nine catch basins enriched with 15N-potassium nitrate as green squares and the red star represents the mean center of these nine points.
Figure 2.
Emergence of Culex spp. mosquitoes from the nine catch basins receiving 15N enrichment in suburban Chicago in 2010 (A) and 2011 (B).
Stars represent the dates when 15N-enriched female Culex pools were captured in traps.

Probability of detecting a marked female Culex spp. mosquito at different distances from larval origin.
The prediction function is equal to (1+tanh((−0.76*x – 1.74)/2))/2. Dashed lines represent standard error.
