EXCITO-REPELLENCY OF DELTAMETHRIN ON THE MALARIA VECTORS, ANOPHELES MINIMUS, ANOPHELES DIRUS, ANOPHELES SWADIWONGPORNI, AND ANOPHELES MACULAZUS, IN THAILAND THEERAPHAP CHAREONVIRIYAPHARI ATCHARIYA PRABARIPAI, AND MICHAEL J. BANGS3 ABSTRACT. This study compared the behavioral avoidance responses of 4 mosquito malaria vectors, Anoph- eles minimus, Anopheles iirus, Anopheles maculatus form B, and Anopheles swadiwongpoml, to deltamethrin, the primary insecticide used for indoor residual spraying for malaria vector control in Thailand. Six test popu- lations, reiresenting 4 laboratory colonies and 2 wild-caught populations, were observed during and after ex- posure to deltamethrin at the opeiational dose (0.02 g active ingredienVm2) in_excito-repellency escape chambers. The laboratory colonies included a deltamethrin-susceptible colony and a deltamethrin-resistant colony of An. minimus species A, I colony of An. dirus species B, and I colony of An- maculatus form B. The 2 wild-caught populations included An. swadiwongpomi and members of the An. dirus complex. Times to__escape_byfemale mosquitoes during 30 min of exposure to deltamethrin-treated papers were observed in all populations and compared to nontreated paired controls in contact and noncontact test configurations. Strong behavioral avoid- unc. ,tu. observed in thi deltamethrin-resistant colony of An. minimus, followed by An' swadiwongporni and An. maculatus. The slowest escape response was observed in the colony of An. dirus species B. All 6 populations of Anopheles showed marked contact irritancy to deltamethrin compared to paired controls ilnd noncontact repellency trials, in both confiol'led laboratory colonies and field-caught populations. The degree of repellency wis less profbund than irritancy but, in most cases, produced a significant escape response compared to paired controls. Avoidance behavior appears to be an innate behavior of mosquitoes, as indicated by the general avoidance response detected in all 4 species, regardless of deltamethrin susceptibility status, age, or nutritional and physiological status. Excito-repellency assays of the type described in this study should become an integral part^ofthe overall assessment of an insecticide's ability to control disease transmission in any given area- KEY WORDS Behavioral avoidance, irritancy, repellency, deltamethrin, Anopheles minimus, Anopheles mac ulatus, Ano p he Ie s d i ru s, Ano phe I es sw ad iw o n gp o rn i, Thailand INTRODUCTION cliwongpomi are morphologically distinct members in the An. maculatus group (Rattanarithikul and malaria remains a major and re- In Thailand, Green 1986).

Irish1*, Hasan Mohammad Al-Amin2, Mohammad Shafiul Alam2 and Ralph E. Harbach3 Abstract Background: Diseases caused by mosquito-borne pathogens remain an important source of morbidity and mortality in Bangladesh. To better control the vectors that transmit the agents of disease, and hence the diseases they cause, and to appreciate the diversity of the family Culicidae, it is important to have an up-to-date list of the species present in the country. Original records were collected from a literature review to compile a list of the species recorded in Bangladesh. Results: Records for 123 species were collected, although some species had only a single record. This is an increase of ten species over the most recent complete list, compiled nearly 30 years ago. Collection records of three additional species are included here: Anopheles pseudowillmori, Armigeres malayi and Mimomyia luzonensis. Conclusions: While this work constitutes the most complete list of mosquito species collected in Bangladesh, further work is needed to refine this list and understand the distributions of those species within the country. Improved morphological and molecular methods of identification will allow the refinement of this list in years to come.

The widespread emergence of insecticide resistance in this mosquito species poses a serious threat to the efficacy of malaria control measures, particularly in China. Recently, the whole-genome sequencing and de novo assembly of An. sinensis (China strain) has been finished. A series of insecticide-resistant studies in An. sinensis have also been reported. There is a growing need to integrate these valuable data to provide a comprehensive database for further studies on insecticide-resistant management of An. sinensis. Results: A bioinformatics database named An. sinensis genome database (ASGDB) was built. In addition to being a searchable database of published An. sinensis genome sequences and annotation, ASGDB provides in-depth analytical platforms for further understanding of the genomic and genetic data, including visualization of genomic data, orthologous relationship analysis, GO analysis, pathway analysis, expression analysis and resistance-related gene analysis. Moreover, ASGDB provides a panoramic view of insecticide resistance studies in An. sinensis in China. In total, 551 insecticide-resistant phenotypic and genotypic reports on An. sinensis distributed in Chinese malaria- endemic areas since the mid-1980s have been collected, manually edited in the same format and integrated into OpenLayers map-based interface, which allows the international community to assess and exploit the high volume of scattered data much easier.

We conducted this study to determine the insecticide susceptibility of two malaria vectors, Anopheles dirus and Anopheles minimus from Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand. The mosquitoes were collected and reared under laboratory conditions. The test was carried out on unfed F-1 female mosquitoes using a stan- dard WHO testing protocol. The LD50 and LD90 of deltamethrin in both species were tested for by exposing the mosquitoes to various doses of deltamethrin for 1 hour. The lethal time was also tested among mosquitoes by exposing them to deltame- thrin (0.05%), permethrin (0.75%) and malathion (5%), for different exposure times, ranging from 0.5 to 15 minutes. Percent knockdown at 60 minutes and mortality at 24 hours were calculated. The resistance ratio (RR) was determined based on the LD50 and LT50 values. LD50 of deltamethrin against An.dirus and An.minimus were 0.00077% and 0.00066%, respectively. LT50 values for deltamethrin (0.05%), permethrin (0.75%) and malathion (5%) against An.dirus and An.minimus were 1.20, 3.16 and 10.07 minutes and 0.48, 1.92 and 5.94 minutes, respectively. The study revealed slightly increased tolerance by both mosquito species, compared with laboratory susceptible strains, based on LD50 values. The two anopheline species had the same patterns of response to the three insecticides, based on LT50 values, although the LT50 values were slightly higher in the An.

  • Bacillus Sphaericus Exposure Reduced Vector Competence of Anopheles
    Yu et al. Parasites Vectors (2020) 13:446 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-020-04321-w Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Bacillus sphaericus exposure reduced vector competence of Anopheles dirus to Plasmodium yoelii by upregulating the Imd signaling pathway Shasha Yu1, Pan Wang1, Jie Qin1, Hong Zheng2, Jing Wang1, Tingting Liu1, Xuesen Yang1 and Ying Wang1* Abstract Background: Vector control with Bacillus sphaericus (Bs) is an efective way to block the transmission of malaria. How- ever, in practical application of Bs agents, a sublethal dose efect was often caused by insufcient dosing, and it is little known whether the Bs exposure would afect the surviving mosquitoes’ vector capacity to malaria. Methods: A sublethal dose of the Bs 2362 strain was administrated to the early fourth-instar larvae of Anopheles dirus to simulate shortage use of Bs in feld circumstance. To determine vector competence, mosquitoes were dissected and the oocysts in the midguts were examined on day 9–11 post-infection with Plasmodium yoelii. Meanwhile, a SYBR quantitative PCR assay was conducted to examine the transcriptional level of the key immune molecules of mosqui- toes, and RNA interference was utilized to validate the role of key immune efector molecule TEP1. Results: The sublethal dose of Bs treatment signifcantly reduced susceptibility of An. dirus to P. yoelii, with the decrease of P. yoelii infection intensity and rate. Although there existed a melanization response of adult An. dirus fol- lowing challenge with P. yoelii, it was not involved in the decrease of vector competence as no signifcant diference of melanization rates and densities between the control and Bs groups was found.

Abstract: Bhutan is aggressively embarking on a path towards malaria elimination. Despite substantial progress, Bhutan remains vulnerable to imported malaria. The majority of cases are in Sarpang district, which shares a border with the state of Assam in India. However, the anopheline species responsible for autochthonous malaria transmission have not been well characterized. Therefore, a comparison of the Anopheles species in Sarpang was made with published records of anopheline mosquitoes in neighboring Assam. An assessment of Anopheles species composition was undertaken from June to July 2014 in four Sarpang villages adjacent to the Sarpang-Assam border.

    Maeno et al. Parasites & Vectors (2015) 8:376 DOI 10.1186/s13071-015-0995-y RESEARCH Open Access Humans frequently exposed to a range of non-human primate malaria parasite species through the bites of Anopheles dirus mosquitoes in South-central Vietnam Yoshimasa Maeno1*,NguyenTuyenQuang2, Richard Culleton3, Satoru Kawai4, Gaku Masuda5, Shusuke Nakazawa6 and Ron P. Marchand2 Abstract Background: Recent studies have described natural human infections of the non-human primate parasites Plasmodium knowlesi and Plasmodium cynomolgi. In Southeast Asia, mosquitoes of the Anopheles leucosphyrus group bite both humans and monkeys in the forest and thus offer a possible route for Plasmodium species to bridge the species barrier. In this study we analysed the species composition of malarial sporozoites infecting the salivary glands of Anopheles dirus in order to determine their potential role as bridge vectors of Plasmodium parasites from monkeys to humans. Methods: Mosquitoes were collected in the forest and forest fringe area of Khanh Phu commune by human-baited landing collection. Anopheles species were determined on the basis of morphologic features. Sporozoite-infected salivary glands were applied to filter paper and dried in an ambient atmosphere, before storage in closed vials at 4–6°C. Detection and identification of Plasmodium species in salivary glands were carried out by nested-PCR of the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene. Results: Six species of Plasmodium parasites were detected by PCR, of which P. vivax was the most common, followed by P. knowlesi, P. inui, P. cynomolgi, P. coatneyi and P. falciparum. Twenty-six of the 79 sporozoite infected mosquitoes showed multiple infections, most of which were a combination of P.

  • Anopheline Species Complexes in South and South-East Asia WHO Library Cataloguing-In-Publication Data World Health Organization, Regional Office for South-East Asia
    SEARO Technical Publication No. 57 Vector-borne diseases are a major health problem in the South-East Asia Region and in other parts of the world. There are about 4 500 mosquito species in existence; species belonging to the Anopheles genus transmit malaria. Combating malaria is part of the Millenium Development Goals, and vector control is a key strategy both regionally and globally. Therefore, the review and dissemination of information on vector species is critically important. Most of the anophelines that are involved in the transmission of malaria in South and South-East Asia have been identified as species complexes. Members of a species complex are reproductively isolated evolutionary units with distinct gene pools and, hence, they differ in their biological characteristics. In 1998, WHO published Anopheline species complexes in South-East Asia. New identification tools have been developed since then, and therefore this updated edition is being published. It summarizes work that has been done on anopheline cryptic species and will be highly valuable to researchers, field entomologists and malaria- control programme managers.

Of 5,399 captured female anophelines, 70.25% belong to the subgenus Cellia and remaining specimens to the subgenus Anopheles. Five important putative malaria vectors were molecularly identified, including Anopheles epiroticus, Anopheles dirus, Anopheles sawadwongporni, Anopheles maculatus, and Anopheles minimus. Anopheles epiroticus was the most commonly collected species in the coastal site, whereas An. dirus was found to be most abundant in the forest-hill site. From both locations, a greater number of mosquitoes was collected during the dry season compared to the wet. Anopheles epiroticus showed greater exophagic and zoophilic behavior with the highest blood feeding densities occurring between 18:00 and 19:00.
