Mosquitoes are important living organisms that participate in the different levels of food chains. However, many families include vector species capable to transmit viruses, bacteria and parasites both humans animals, threatening public health. The goal this work was describe biological diversity mosquito areas M'sila; Algeria based on ecological nature their habitat. breeding sites found were ...

This study contributes to knowledge of Anopheles species, including vectors of Plasmodium from the western Brazilian Amazon in Porto Velho, Rondônia State. The sampling area has undergone substantial environmental changes as a consequence of agricultural and hydroelectric projects, which have caused intensive deforestation and favored habitats for some mosquito species. The purpose of this stud...

Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus are mosquito vectors for several tropical diseases that represent a current public health problem. The ecological requirements for each species are different, however, both species show high biological adaptability, which promotes their coexistence in the same breeding sites. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of larval association betwee...

Since long Rajahmundry town, East Godavari district of Andhra Pradesh, India is endemic for transmission of lymphatic filariasis1. Due to unplanned rapid urbanisation, unreliable water supply, open drainage system and water storage practices among the people of Rajahmundry town, heavy breeding of Culex quinquefasciatus (Diptera : Culicidae), the vector of filariasis and Aedes aegypti (Diptera :...

To study mosquito ( Diptera : Culicidae) fauna in Guilan province (Caspian sea littoral , North of Iran ), an investigation was carried out during April to December 2000. The whole set of 2478 adult specimens from 64 habitats and 6656 larvae from 127 larval breeding places was collected . Three species of the genus Culiseta were identified as follow: 1- Cs. longiareolata 2- Cs. morsitans 3- Cs....

Haemagogus leucocelaenus (Diptera: Culicidae) is considered the primary vector of yellow fever virus (Flaviviridae) in wild environments South America. Previous research has defined Hg. as a species with phytotelmata-type breeding sites. The objective this study was to report temporal and space occurrence at microscale wild-periurban fringe through systematic spatially stratified sampling using...

The Camargue is an extensive wetland in the southeast of France, which is highly influenced by human activities. Large ponds, marshes and irrigated fields provide abundant potential breeding sites for mosquitoes. mosquitoes, which are important in terms of the nuisance they cause to people and animals, the limitations they impose on tourism and their potential threat to human health. Several of...
