Rice volatiles lure gravid malaria mosquitoes, Anopheles arabiensis
Mosquito oviposition site selection is essential for vector population dynamics and malaria epidemiology. Irrigated rice cultivations provide ideal larval habitats for malaria mosquitoes, which has resulted in increased prevalence of the malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis, in sub-Saharan Africa. The nature and origin of the cues regulating this behaviour are only now being elucidated. We show...
متن کاملAnopheles Mosquitoes and Imported Malaria in Libya
Anopheles multicolor Cambouliu, An. sergentii Theobald and, in a circumscribed coastal area, An. labranchiae Falleroni are considered to have been vectors of malaria in Libya where the incidence of imported malaria has increased. Libyan records of the Afrotropical vector An. gambiae Giles sensu Zato are considered erroneus. However, two factors increase the risk of invasion from the south byAn....
متن کاملSemi-field assessment of the BG-Malaria trap for monitoring the African malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis
Odour-baited technologies are increasingly considered for effective monitoring of mosquito populations and for the evaluation of vector control interventions. The BG-Malaria trap (BGM), which is an upside-down variant of the widely used BG-Sentinel trap (BGS), has been demonstrated to be effective to sample the Brazilian malaria vector, Anopheles darlingi. We evaluated the BGM as an improved me...
متن کاملMultimodal Pyrethroid Resistance in Malaria Vectors, Anopheles gambiae s.s., Anopheles arabiensis, and Anopheles funestus s.s. in Western Kenya
Anopheles gambiae s.s., Anopheles arabiensis, and Anopheles funestus s.s. are the most important species for malaria transmission. Pyrethroid resistance of these vector mosquitoes is one of the main obstacles against effective vector control. The objective of the present study was to monitor the pyrethroid susceptibility in the 3 major malaria vectors in a highly malaria endemic area in western...
متن کاملMalaria transmission potential by Anopheles mosquitoes of Dajabon, Dominican Republic.
A field and laboratory study was conducted to determine some of the parameters relevant to malaria transmission by Anopheles mosquitoes in Dajabon Province, Dominican Republic. Although all 4 species occurring in the area, i.e., An. albimanus, An. crucians, An. grabhamii and An. vestitipennis, were included in the investigations, most of the work focused on the first and last named species beca...
