Supplementary Data and Code for Wingbeat Frequency Analysis of Aedes aegypti
Year: 2025
Type: supplementary-materials
Abstract: Description This dataset contains experimental recordings and analysis code used to investigate wingbeat frequency (WBF) in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes under controlled laboratory and field-inspired conditions. The data support the manuscript Wing beat frequency in Ae. aegypti (Insecta, Diptera) kept under laboratory conditions: Implications for arbovirus transmission and vector control. The repository includes: VideoRecordings: Original and processed audio-visual files organized by experiment, group, and condition. Experiment 1: Containment system comparison (glass, 3D-printed box, acrylic cylinder, acrylic box). Experiment 2: Longitudinal recordings of males and females (daily variation). Experiment 3: Nutritional states (sugar-fed, blood-fed, starved). Experiment 4: Field vs. laboratory population comparisons (urban BO, semi-urban JA, Rockefeller strain). Supplementary Size Effect: Acoustic recordings from size-based containment tests. AnalysisCode: Jupyter notebooks and Python functions for signal processing, spectral analysis (STFT, peak detection), statistical testing (non-parametric tests, effect sizes), and figure generation. Outputs include CSV tables, LaTeX summaries, and plots. Figures and Results: Statistical tables and summary outputs in machine-readable and LaTeX-ready formats. This resource enables reproducibility of the analyses presented in the study and provides a structured dataset for further acoustic research on mosquito flight behavior. Keywords: Aedes aegypti, wingbeat frequency, acoustic analysis, mosquito behavior, experimental dataset, reproducible research
