Seasonal changes in the population structure of anophelines were studied in Kheda district, Gujarat. Mosquito collections were made from the villages of Nadiad taluka, representing 3 different physiographic zones. Maximum number of anopheline species (13) were recorded from canal irrigated area followed by 11 species from non-canal irrigated and 8 species from riverine areas. Four anophelines namely An. subpictus, An. culicifacies, An. annularis and An. stephensi were predominant. High densities of An. culicifacies and An. subpictus were recorded in March and August. Results of a four year study (1985 to 1988) on the population of anophelines from 3 different physiographic entities showed marked differences in the seasonal abundance of different species.
在古吉拉特邦的凯达区,对按蚊的种群结构季节性变化进行了研究。从纳迪亚德县的村庄收集蚊子,这些村庄代表了3个不同的地貌区。在运河灌溉区记录到的按蚊种类最多(13种),其次是非运河灌溉区的11种和河流区的8种。四种按蚊,即伪威氏按蚊、库氏按蚊、环纹按蚊和斯氏按蚊占主导地位。在3月和8月记录到库氏按蚊和伪威氏按蚊的高密度。一项为期四年(1985年至1988年)对来自3个不同地貌区域的按蚊种群的研究结果表明,不同种类按蚊的季节性丰度存在显著差异。
