摘 要:Objective:To determine the effects of environmental parameters of lanal habitats on distribution and abundance of anopheline mosquitoes in Rudan county of ***:This cross-sectional study was conducted during the mosquito breeding season from February 2010 to October 2011. The anopheline larvae were collected using the standard dipping method,the specimens were identified using a morphological-based *** with larvay collection,environmental parameters of the larval habitats including water current and turbidity,sunlight situation,and substrate type of habitats were *** samples were taken from breeding sites during lanal *** collection of samples,the water temperature was *** water samples were analysed for turbidity,conductivity,total alkalinity,total dissolved *** and ions including chloride,sulphate,calcium,and *** correlation analysis and ANOVA test were used to analyze the association between environmental parameters and larval mosquito ***:In total 2 973 lanae of the genus Anopheles were collected from 25 larval habitats and identified using morphological *** comprised of six species: ***(53.21%),***(24.22%),***(14.06%),***(4.07%),An. turkhudi(3.30%),and ***(1.14%).The most abundant species was *** which were collected from all of the study *** of two malaria *** and ***, co-existed and collected in a wide range of habitats with different physico-chemical parameters.
