Entomological investigation during an outbreak of malaria in Gorubandha PHC in Sonitpur district revealed unusually high density of Anopheles culicifacies followed by An.minimus. Parity rates of both the species were very high, 65% and 62.2% respectively. An. culicifacies was incriminated as malaria vector. Sporozoite rate recorded was 0.63%. Both the species were found susceptible to DDT. This substantiates the epidemiological observation which yielded 98% Plasmodium falciparum malaria out of 35.2% malaria positive cases. Incrimination of An. culicifacies means adding one more malaria vector to this region.
在索尼特布尔区戈鲁班达初级卫生保健中心疟疾暴发期间进行的昆虫学调查显示,致倦库蚊密度异常高,其次是微小按蚊。这两个蚊种的经产率都非常高,分别为65%和62.2%。致倦库蚊被确认为疟疾传播媒介。记录的子孢子率为0.63%。发现这两个蚊种对滴滴涕敏感。这证实了流行病学观察结果,即在35.2%的疟疾阳性病例中,恶性疟原虫疟疾占98%。致倦库蚊被确认为传播媒介意味着该地区又增加了一种疟疾传播媒介。
