Attempts have been made to identify the source of blood meals of twenty three anopheline species from various areas of high malaria endemicity in India. Anopheles minimus, Anopheles fluviatilis and Anopheles dirus showed a high propensity for human blood in North-Eastern parts of the country while Anopheles sundicus was found to be anthropophilic in Andaman & Nicobar Islands. Anopheles culicifacies, Anopheles maculatus and Anopheles philippinensis were found primarily zoophilic in north-eastern areas. High anthropophily has been closely related to sporozoite infection in anophelines specially in Anopheles minimus and is of great epidemiological significance. |
