A mosquito faunistic survey conducted during 1999-2005 in 7 different states of the northeastern (NE) region of India revealed that the region is very rich in mosquito fauna, particularly of the genus Aedes. From the present survey and earlier published reports, a total of 48 species of Aedes and a related genus Verrallina were recorded. The state of Assam contributed the highest number of species compared to the other 6 states, namely Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Tripura. Larvae of 46 species were collected from 16 different habitats and for some species the habitats were species specific. The known dengue vectors, Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus, were recorded from all 7 states, although Ae. aegypti was not known earlier from Mizoram, Nagaland, and Tripura states. Aedes albotaeniatus was a new addition to the Aedes fauna of the region.
1999年至2005年期间，在印度东北地区7个不同邦开展的一项蚊虫群落调查显示，该地区的蚊虫种类极为丰富，尤其是伊蚊属。根据本次调查及早期发表的报告，共记录到48种伊蚊及一个相关属——费蚊属。与其他6个邦（即阿鲁纳恰尔邦、曼尼普尔邦、梅加拉亚邦、米佐拉姆邦、那加兰邦和特里普拉邦）相比，阿萨姆邦记录的蚊虫种类最多。从16种不同栖息地采集到了46种蚊虫的幼虫，且某些种类的蚊虫具有特定的栖息地。已知的登革热传播媒介埃及伊蚊和白纹伊蚊在所有7个邦均有记录，不过米佐拉姆邦、那加兰邦和特里普拉邦此前并未发现埃及伊蚊。白线伊蚊是该地区伊蚊种类中的新增物种。
