Zoophilic and anthropophilic behaviour in the Anopheles gambiae complex [PDF]
The work included in this thesis arose from a long-standing interest in the possible use of genetic control for one of the most important malaria vectors in Africa, Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto.

Organochlorine residue sequestration by anopheles culicifacies sensu lato mosquito larvae
Anopheles culicifacies sensu lato is the major vector of rural and peri-urban malaria in India (Pattanayak et al. 1994). Residual insecticides such as HCH and DDT have been the mainstay of malaria control to interrupt transmission (Anon 1991).

Insecticide Resistance Status of Malaria Vectors in a Malarious Area, Southeast of Iran
Background: Malaria continues to be the main vector-borne disease in Iran. The endemic foci of malaria are in Sistan and Baluchistan Province, the borderline of Iran and Pakistan. By the year 2020 the program of the country is malaria elimination.

Attractive toxic sugar bait containing ivermectin (ATSB‐IVM) ingestion markedly reduced blood feeding, survival, oviposition, egg production and larval hatching, with the strongest effects when baits were ingested before blood feeding. Timing of ingestion (48–96 h before or after blood feeding) shaped sublethal impacts across the first and second ...
