larval habitat of armigeres subalbatus (coq) and its characteristics in pondicherry.	larval habitats of armigeres subalbatus were delineated in urban and rural areas of pondicherry. survey of various potential mosquito breeding habitats revealed that septic tanks were the typical breeding habitat in both areas and the proportion was significantly higher in urban areas. the productive status of septic tanks differed in different months and the overall proportion breeding ar. subalbatus was significantly higher in urban areas (0.0447) compared to rural areas (0.0181). sporadic bre ...	1992	1362629
susceptibility of ten species of mosquito larvae to the parasitic nematode romanomermis iyengari and its development.	ten species of mosquitoes (diptera: culicidae) from five genera were exposed to preparasites of the tropical mermithid nematode species romanomermis iyengari (welch) (nematoda: mermithidae), a strain isolated in 1978 from pondicherry. by exposing mosquito larvae during the second instar, nematode infection was invariably lethal, the rate being highest in culex sitiens wiedemann (95%) followed by cx. quinquefasciatus say (90%), aedes aegypti (l.) (79%), anopheles subpictus grassi (64%), ae. albop ...	2000	11129707
