Anopheles culicifacies (probably species A) is the main vector of malaria in Baluchistan, southeastern Iran. Adult mosquitoes were collected during 1990-92 by five methods of sampling: knock-down pyrethrum space-spray indoors, human and animal bait (18.00-05.00 hours), pit shelters and CDC light traps, yielding 62%, 3%, 6%, 4% and 25% of specimens, respectively. Whereas spray-catches comprised c. 70% gravid and semi-gravid females, light trap catches were mostly (c. 60%) unfed females, while females from pit shelters comprised all abdominal stages more equally (13-36%). An.culicifacies populations peaked in April-May and rose again during August-November. Densities of indoor-resting mosquitoes were consistently greater in an unsprayed village than in villages subjected to residual house-spraying with propoxur, malathion or pirimiphos-methyl. Monthly malaria incidence generally followed fluctuations of An.culicifacies density, usually with a peak in May-June.
库氏按蚊（可能是A种）是伊朗东南部俾路支省疟疾的主要传播媒介。1990年至1992年期间，通过五种采样方法收集成年蚊子：室内击倒式除虫菊空间喷洒、人和动物诱饵诱捕（18:00至05:00）、坑式庇护所诱捕和疾控中心灯光诱捕，分别获得了62%、3%、6%、4%和25%的标本。喷洒捕获的标本中约70%为妊娠和半妊娠雌蚊，灯光诱捕捕获的大多是未进食的雌蚊（约60%），而来自坑式庇护所的雌蚊各腹部阶段分布更为均匀（13% - 36%）。库氏按蚊种群数量在4月至5月达到峰值，8月至 November再次上升。未喷洒杀虫剂的村庄室内栖息蚊子的密度始终高于使用残杀威、马拉硫磷或甲基嘧啶磷进行房屋残留喷洒的村庄。疟疾月发病率通常随库氏按蚊密度的波动而变化，通常在5月至6月达到峰值。
