The mosquito sampling efficiency of light-trap catches and electric motor mosquito catches were compared with that of human biting catches in the Three Gorges Reservoir. There was consistency in the sampling efficiency between light-trap catches and human biting catches for Anopheles sinensis (r = 0.82, P<0.01) and light-trap catches were 1.52 (1.35-1.71) times that of human biting catches regardless of mosquito density (r = 0.33, P>0.01), while the correlation between electric motor mosquito catches and human biting catches was found to be not statistically significant (r = 0.43, P>0.01) and its sampling efficiency was below that of human biting catches. It is concluded that light-traps can be used as an alternative to human biting catches of Anopheles sinensis in the study area and is a promising tool for sampling malaria vector populations.
在三峡库区,比较了诱蚊灯捕获和电击式捕蚊器捕获与人体诱蚊捕获的蚊虫采样效率。诱蚊灯捕获与人体诱蚊捕获的嗜人按蚊采样效率具有一致性(r=0.82,P<0.01),无论蚊密度如何,诱蚊灯捕获的嗜人按蚊数量均是人体诱蚊捕获的 1.52 倍(r=0.33,P>0.01),而电击式捕蚊器捕获与人体诱蚊捕获的相关性无统计学意义(r=0.43,P>0.01),其采样效率低于人体诱蚊捕获。结论表明,在研究区域,诱蚊灯可作为人体诱蚊捕获嗜人按蚊的替代方法,是一种有前景的疟疾媒介种群采样工具。
