Book Description
Indian Anophelines is the first book of its kind on the fauna of anopheline mosquitoes from India. The following aspects of mosquito systematics, biology and distribution are described: Worldwide distribution of anophelines in 12 malaria epidemiological zones, Reported distribution of anophelines in India; Bio-ecology and behaviour of mosquitoes; Updated vector status; Pictorial keys; Bibliography; and Glossary. Indian Anophelines assume special importance because of the deteriorating malaria situation in India, complicated by vector resistance to insecticides, ecological succession of mosquitoes, invasion of mosquitoes to new areas, as also their disappearance from certain areas. As a result mosquito fauna has undergone major changes and this precise knowledge at the local level in endemic regions is invariably lacking. Often the identification is made difficult due to variations in many appendages. For each anopheline species the book provides names, derivatives, type form availability, resting habits, breeding ecology, biting time, flight range, susceptibility to insecticides, relation to disease, reported distribution in India and the world, and results of vector incrimination studies. Using this book it is easy to identify specimens correctly up to species level. Taxonomic description of each species is supported by high quality illustrations giving distinguishing features of each species and their variations. The style of presentation is lucid and simple. This book is intended as a reference material for students of mosquito systematics. The book therefore would be a valuable addition in the libraries and a source of knowledge for the students engaged in research and those interested in the study of the bioecology and control of mosquitoes.
