Abstract:
In the newly revised and illustrated keys to 4th instar larvae and adult female mosquitoes, the following 36 Anopheles species from Myanmar are included: Anopheles aconitus, An. aitkenii, An. annularis, An. argyropus, An. barbirostris, An. bengalensis, An. culicifacies, An. dirus, An. fluviatilis, An. gigas, An. insulaeflorum, An. jamesii, An. jeyporensis, An. karwari, An. kochi, An. kyondawensis, An. lindesayi, An. maculatus, An. majidi, An. minimus, An. nigerrimus, An. nitidus, An. pallidus, An. peditaeniatus, An. philippinensis, An. pseudojamesii, An. sinensis, An. splendidus, An. stephensi, An. subpictus, An. sundaicus, An. tessellatus, An. theobaldi, An. vagus, An. varuna, and An. willmori. The new keys presented in this paper will enable public health workers to rapidly identify mosquito vectors of malaria and to distinguish them from other species in the same genera.
