There are unorganized, published documents about the ecology of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in northeastern part of Iran. The purpose of this study was to determine the distribution and characteristics of larval habitats of Culicidae in Kalaleh County.
Larvae were collected using dipping method and adults by human landing catch technique during April-October, 2012. Larval habitat characteristics were recorded such as vegetation status, and sunlight, water situation. Lacto-phenol and de Faure's media were used for conserving and mounting samples. Data were analyzed using SPSS statistical software, version 11.5.
Out of the 395 larvae collected, 332 were adult mosquitoes comprising; , , and genera and 14 species including , s.l., , , , , , , , , , and . larvae were predominant (27.6%) and (1%) was found as the lowest species in terms of number. In the adult form, (28.9%) was predominant whereas, and were reported to have had the lowest frequency
The larvae of and species as the main vectors of malaria in north of Iran were reported in permanent habitats with clear water and vegetation, full and partial sunlight situations and muddy as well as sandy substrates that are important in larvicide application programs. Exclusive studies are necessary to diagnose species complex using molecular and morphological analysis in the future.
在伊朗东北部，有关蚊子（双翅目：蚊科）生态学的文献资料零散且已发表。本研究的目的是确定卡拉莱县蚊科幼虫栖息地的分布和特征。
2012年4月至10月期间，采用浸渍法采集幼虫，用人工诱捕法采集成虫。记录幼虫栖息地特征，如植被状况、光照和水情。使用乳酸酚和德福尔培养基保存和固定样本。数据使用SPSS统计软件11.5版进行分析。
在采集的395只幼虫中，有332只发育为成虫，包括 属、 属、 属和 属，以及14个物种，包括 、 狭义、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 和 。 幼虫占比最高（27.6%）， （1%）数量最少。在成虫中， （28.9%）占主导，而 属和 属的频率最低。
伊朗北部疟疾主要传播媒介 属和 属的幼虫，见于有清水和植被、有充足和部分光照、有泥泞及沙地基质的永久性栖息地，这些在杀幼虫剂应用项目中很重要。未来有必要进行专门研究，利用分子和形态学分析来诊断 物种复合体。
