Anopheline breeding habitats were studied in two different geoclimatic zones. The vectors A. fluviatilis, A annularis and A. culicifacies breed in all types of habitats. Streams were most productive for the main vector, A. fluviatilis and breeding was intense during winter and early summer. In the rainy season, breeding occurred in terraced paddy fields. A. culicifacies were produced in large numbers in rivers in summer and in paddy fields in rainy and cold seasons. Considering the vastness of these breeding habitats, vector control measures by larviciding or any other bioenvironmental means will not be a feasible alternative even though house spraying poses serious problems in this area due to several reasons. The use of personal protection methods is suggested.
在两个不同的地理气候区对按蚊的繁殖栖息地进行了研究。媒介河流按蚊、环纹按蚊和库氏按蚊在所有类型的栖息地繁殖。溪流是主要媒介河流按蚊最适宜繁殖的地方，冬季和初夏繁殖活跃。雨季时，繁殖发生在梯田稻田。库氏按蚊在夏季的河流以及雨季和寒冷季节的稻田中大量繁殖。鉴于这些繁殖栖息地范围广阔，尽管由于多种原因室内喷洒在该地区存在严重问题，但通过杀幼虫或任何其他生物环境手段进行病媒控制措施都不是可行的选择。建议采用个人防护方法。
