| a study of the age-composition of natural populations of culex pipiens fatigans wiedemann in relation to the transmission of filariasis due to wuchereria bancrofti (cobbold) in ceylon. | filariasis due to wuchereria bancrofti is becoming an increasingly important problem in many countries of southern and south-eastern asia. from 1962 to 1964, a study was made of the vector of this disease, culex pipiens fatigans, in two districts of colombo, ceylon, one with vector control by larviciding and one without. catches were made of the house-resting, biting and ovipositing populations, and the stages of ovarian development, parity and infection were determined by examination of the ext ... | 1967 | 5300045 |
| observations on the habits and control of culex pipiens fatigans in guyana. | investigations in guyana in 1961-63 showed that wuchereria bancrofti was the only filarial parasite causing elephantiasis and that culex pipiens fatigans was the primary vector. mansonia titillans and anopheles aquasalis were found to be secondary vectors.c. p. fatigans bred primarily in pit latrines and secondarily in the clean, confined water of drums and barrels near latrines. no breeding occurred in the relatively clean open water of trenches, ditches and drains.of 21016 mosquitos collected ... | 1967 | 5300072 |
