Studies were undertaken to assess the role of some indigenous fish of Haryana state for the biological control of mosquitoes. Total of 28 fish species were encountered. Only six fresh water fish species Puntius ticto, Colisa fasciata, Aplocheilus panchax, Rasbora daniconius, Chanda nama, and Esomus danricus species possessed good feeding potential on mosquito larvae. The small size, well developed eyes and position of the mouth seem to be probably the important factors helping their voracity on mosquito larvae. These fish are either surface, subsurface or column feeders.
开展了多项研究，以评估哈里亚纳邦一些本土鱼类在蚊子生物防治中的作用。共发现了28种鱼类。只有六种淡水鱼，即细纹无须魮、条纹斗鱼、叉尾斗鱼、五线无须魮、纳氏非洲胎鳉和丹氏似鳡，对蚊子幼虫具有良好的捕食潜力。体型小、眼睛发育良好以及口的位置似乎可能是有助于它们捕食蚊子幼虫的重要因素。这些鱼要么是表层、次表层或中层摄食者。
