Northeast region (NER) states of India remain highly malarious due to their geographical and ecotype diversity. Furthermore, rapid urbanization and change in climate are also affecting the vector biology and behavior of the existing species. Hence, a study is conducted in the states of Tripura and Meghalaya to generate data on the bionomics of the prevalent malaria vector species. The data from this study show that primary vectors of malaria An. minimus and An. baimaii were anthropophagic. However, An. baimaii showed a behavioral shift towards zoophagicity (∼14%). Insecticide bioassays confirm that these two major vector species are reportedly susceptible to DDT, Malathion, and indicate that intervention by DDT-IRS is effective. Thus, the implementation of appropriate strategies based on this recent information on the bionomics of malaria vectors in NE region of India will provide an opportunity to achieve malaria elimination by date in these states. |
