| Malaria is caused by a parasite, called Plasmodium, that is transmitted from man to man by the bite of anopheline mosquitoes. |
|
| Aerial application of insecticides by ultra-low volume has been successful in use against anopheline mosquitoes in Haiti. |
|
| Also in the Laotian study site and in the coastal study site of southern Vietnam we could not find any anopheline positive for sporozoites. |
|
| The distribution of humans and anopheline mosquitoes is not continuous across this region, but generally clustered on the high-elevation areas where rainfall is abundant. |
|
| Observational studies have found no evidence that insect electrocuters and ultrasonic buzzers reduce bites to humans from infected anopheline mosquitoes. |
|
| Malaria transmission is maintained by A.dirus A and A.minimus A. More than 20 other anopheline species have been collected in this village and their role as secondary vectors remains uncertain. |
|
| It had long been realized that the only effective way of controlling malaria was to eradicate the anopheline mosquitoes that transmit the disease. |
|
| Morphological keys are available for all anopheline vectors in a paper-based format and some electronic, computer-based keys are available to identify anopheline species in some areas. |
|
| In order to be able to undertake effective malaria control programmes it is important to know which anopheline species are involved in local transmission. |
|
| Smells play an important role not only in the host-seeking behaviour of anopheline females, but also in providing clues for the finding of suitable sites for oviposition. |
|
| For a description of the terminology used to define the anatomical parts of the female mosquito, go to the unit Details of female anopheline mosquito. |
|
| Malaria, which is caused by a protozoan of the genus Plasmodium transmitted to humans by the bite of an anopheline mosquito, is an example of this interaction. |
|
| In many cases, the low survival rate of vectors resulting from the hostile outdoor environment means that high anopheline density is required to sustain transmission. |
|
| Measures targeting the aquatic stages of vectors should be considered only when anopheline breeding sites can be identified, particularly around settlements. |
|
| Many important vectors of malaria bite indoors at night, and may rest on indoor surfaces after biting, whereas larval habitats vary markedly among anopheline species. |
|
| There are several characteristics for species identification of anopheline mosquito larvae, for instance tergal plates, palmate hairs and mesothoracic pleural hair. |
|
| Anopheline mosquitoes, like Drosophila, are renowned for the presence of polytene chromosomes and chromosomal inversions. |
