Human landing catch collections by mosquito genus as a function of HLC capture rate (a) and minutes from sunlight (b) by photoperiod (am vs pm). HLC capture rates were calculated as (\(\frac{\sum \, unique \, species \, collected}{\sum \, all \, species \, collected}\)) across all collections. Mosquitoes below the horizontal line were collected in the daytime (between sunrise and sunset) while mosquitoes above the line were collected at nighttime (between sunset and sunrise). A total of 8 mosquitoes were collected in the am hours, while the remainder were collected in the pm hours. Unique uppercase letters below genus/species names indicate significantly different groupings, as designated by Tukey's HSD
