Seven villages in Banggi Island, Sabah, Malaysia, were surveyed four times to evaluate the roles of local mosquitoes as vectors of malaria and Bancroftian filariasis. 11 species of Anopheles were found biting man. 53.9% of the anophelines caught were An. flavirostris, 27.1% An. balabacensis, 6% An. donaldi and 4.2% An. subpictus. Infective malaria sporozoites, probably of human origin, were found in two of 336 An. flavirostris and 12 of 308 An. balabacensis. Sporozoites, probably of a non-human Plasmodium, were found in An. umbrosus. Nine of 1001 An. flavirostris and four of 365 An. balabacensis harboured L2 or L3 filarial larvae identified as those of Wuchereria bancrofti. This is the first record of An. flavirostris as a natural vector of malaria and W. bancrofti in Sabah.
对马来西亚沙巴邦吉岛的七个村庄进行了四次调查,以评估当地蚊子作为疟疾和班氏丝虫病传播媒介的作用。发现有11种按蚊叮咬人类。捕获的按蚊中,53.9%为黄喙按蚊,27.1%为巴拉望按蚊,6%为多纳尔德按蚊,4.2%为伪杂鳞库蚊。在336只黄喙按蚊中的两只以及308只巴拉望按蚊中的12只体内发现了可能源自人类的感染性疟原虫子孢子。在荫蚊体内发现了可能属于非人疟原虫的子孢子。在1001只黄喙按蚊中的九只以及365只巴拉望按蚊中的四只体内发现了被鉴定为班氏吴策线虫L2或L3期的丝虫幼虫。这是黄喙按蚊作为沙巴疟疾和班氏吴策线虫自然传播媒介的首次记录。
