A study was made on the distribution of anophelines in Suriname with special emphasis on the principal malaria vector Anopheles darlingi and on the occurrence of other possible vector species. Peridomestic human bait collections of adult mosquitoes and collections of larvae were made in many localities with a recent history of malaria transmission. Stable populations of An. darlingi were only found in the interior, south of the limit of tidal influence, due to year-round availability of breeding habitats in quiet partly sunlit places in flooded forest areas and along river banks. In the area with tidal movement of the rivers, breeding is limited to flooded areas in the wet season. Anopheles darlingi was only incidentally collected in low densities. In the interior, malaria transmission occurred in all places where An. darlingi was found. The absence of malaria transmission along the Upper Suriname River could be explained by the absence of An. darlingi. In the malaria endemic areas, An. darlingi was the most numerous mosquito biting on man. In the tidal region, malaria outbreaks are infrequent and might be explained by the temporary availability of favourable breeding habitats for An. darlingi. However, evidence is insufficient to incriminate An. darlingi as the vector of malaria in this region and the possible vectorial role of other anophelines is discussed.
对苏里南按蚊的分布进行了一项研究，特别着重于主要疟疾媒介达林按蚊以及其他可能的媒介种类的出现情况。在许多近期有疟疾传播史的地区，进行了室内外成人诱蚊叮咬采集以及幼虫采集。仅在受潮汐影响范围以南的内陆地区发现了稳定的达林按蚊种群，这是因为在被洪水淹没的森林地区和河岸的安静、部分有阳光照射的地方，全年都有适宜的繁殖栖息地。在河流有潮汐运动的地区，繁殖仅限于雨季的洪水区域。达林按蚊仅偶尔以低密度被采集到。在内陆地区，凡发现有达林按蚊的地方都有疟疾传播。上苏里南河沿岸没有疟疾传播可归因于没有达林按蚊。在疟疾流行地区，达林按蚊是叮咬人类最多的蚊子。在潮汐区域，疟疾暴发不常见，这可能是由于达林按蚊有临时适宜繁殖栖息地。然而，证据不足，无法认定达林按蚊是该地区的疟疾媒介，并且讨论了其他按蚊可能的媒介作用。
