Description

We studied on the blood feeding pattern of Anopheles mosquitoes in malaria endemic area of Bangladesh.Anopheles mosquitoes were collected by means of light trap (LT), pyrethrum spray (PS) and human bait (HB) from a malaria endemic village in the eastern Bangladesh in 2010. A total of 2456 female anopheline mosquitoes representing 21 species were collected from the study area. All species were collected by LT set indoor (n=1094), 19 species were from outdoor (n=784), whereas, 6 by PS (n=549) and 4 species by HB (n=29). We demonstrated that An. baimai,An.minimus s.l, An.annularis, An.jamesii,An.maculatus s.l. and An.pallidus are more or less anthropophilic, while most of the other species are zoophilic. Collected mosquitoes species composition were methodology-specific, light trap sampling can be taken as neutral reflecting the real fauna, while human bait catch comprise of only anthropophilic species, indoor spray catch comprise of only endophylic species. In preliminary survey to incriminate malaria vectors applying proper sampling method is indispensable in Bangladesh.
