Can Mosquito Magnet® substitute for human-landing catches to sample anopheline populations?

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2012
The efficiency of the Mosquito Magnet Liberty PlusTM (MMLP) trap was evaluated in comparison to human-landing catches (HLCs) to sample anopheline populations in Jabillal, state of Bolivar, southern Venezuela.

Most outdoor malaria transmission by behaviourally-resistant Anopheles arabiensis is mediated by mosquitoes that have previously been inside houses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background Anopheles arabiensis is stereotypical of diverse vectors that mediate residual malaria transmission globally, because it can feed outdoors upon humans or cattle, or enter but then rapidly exit houses without fatal exposure to insecticidal ...

Genetic Differentiation of Colombian Populations of Anopheles darlingi Root (Diptera: Culicidae)

open access: yesNeotropical Entomology, 2017
Anopheles darlingi Root is a primary vector of malaria in the neotropic region, a species not just highly anthropophilic but very efficient in transmitting Plasmodium species and considered the most important vector in the Amazon region. The main goal of this study was to determine the genetic structure of the A.

Identifying Malaria Transmission Risk in the Peruvian Amazon: A Geospatial Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Peru has endured a long history with malaria, an infectious disease caused by the mosquito-borne transmission of the Plasmodium parasite. Throughout the 20th century, disease prevalence has varied tremendously with a number of factors including Peru’s ...

Genetic structure and phenotypic variation of Anopheles darlingi in northwest Colombia

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2017
This study evaluated the influence of environmental heterogeneity on Anopheles darlingi genetic and morphometric traits at a microgeographic level. Specimens of An. darlingi collected from multiple municipalities in the Colombian malaria endemic region Urabá-Bajo Cauca and Alto Sinú (UCS) were analyzed using 13 microsatellite loci.

Characterization of Anopheles darlingi (Diptera: Culicidae) Larval Habitats in Belize, Central America

open access: yesJournal of Medical Entomology, 1996
Surveys for larvae of Anopheles darlingi Root were conducted in April, May, and August 1994 in riverine habitats of central Belize (Cayo and Belize districts). An. darlingi was present during both the dry and wet seasons. Larvae were encountered most frequently in patches of floating debris along river margins.
