| field studies on the surveillance of coquillettidia crassipes (van der wulp) and the isolation of a strain of cardiofilaria in peninsular malaysia. | surveillance methods for coquillettidia crassipes were studied in an open housing estate near kuala lumpur using three types of traps trinidad 10 trap, modified lard can trap and imr trap, each baited with chicken or pigeon. all traps attracted cq. crassipes. there was no significant difference in the catches in the three traps. there was also no significant difference between chicken and pigeon as bait. catches at heights of 1.5, 3, 4.5 and 6 m did not show any significant difference in density ... | 1986 | 2875691 |
| field and laboratory observations on coquillettidia crassipes in relation to transmission of brugia malayi in peninsular malaysia. | field observations were made on coquillettidia crassipes during a study of mansonia in a swamp forest ecotype in tanjong karang. there was an increase in abundance in july consistent with the increase in abundance of mansonia and an increase in rainfall. the biting cycle showed a dramatic early peak during the period 1900-2000 hours. the probability of daily survival through one day for the first three gonotrophic cycles was 0.770, 0.722 and 0.759. two of the 54 cq. crassipes dissected were infe ... | 1986 | 2873797 |
| studies of coquillettidia (coquillettidia) crassipes (vanderwulp, 1881) in relation to transmission of cardiofilaria nilesi. | field surveillance of cq. crassipes was conducted in an open housing estate near kuala lumpur using imr traps baited with chicken and gerbils. chicken bait attracted more cq. crassipes. there was significant difference between chicken and gerbil as bait. the mosquitoes preferred to feed at canopy level. the parous rate was 20.41% and the infection rate for cardiofilaria nilesi was 2.04%. none of the 120 chicken and 5 ducks, in a village close to the open housing estate, examined for microfilaria ... | 1985 | 2862708 |
| the transmission of an avian filarioid cardiofilaria nilesi to the jird, meriones unguiculatus. | this paper reports the experimental transmission of a bird parasite into jirds. infective larvae of cardiofilaria nilesi obtained from laboratory colonized coquillettidia crassipes mosquitoes which had fed on an infected chicken were inoculated subcutaneously into jirds. the number of larvae per jird varied from 10 to 228. microfilaraemia appeared 22 to 89 days after inoculation of the infective larvae. experiments were carried out with 24 jirds through six generations extending over a period of ... | 1987 | 3437114 |
| laboratory colonization and life cycle of coquillettidia crassipes in malaysia. | methods are described for the laboratory colonization of coquillettidia crassipes. the highest rate of insemination occurred in 60 x 60 x 120 cm cages and better insemination in laboratory adapted f15 generation. embryonation and hatchability of eggs ranged from 69.6 to 97.9% and 63.3 to 94.3% respectively. gravid females laid egg rafts on water in 500 ml breakers with small leaves of salvinia for resting. newly hatched larvae were set up in a basal medium of guinea pig dung and water or liver p ... | 1986 | 2906991 |
| susceptibility of eight species members in the anopheles hyrcanus group to nocturnally subperiodic brugia malayi. | filariasis, caused by brugia malayi, is a public health problem in thailand. currently, at least two locations in southern thailand are reported to be active endemic areas. two and four mansonia species are primary and secondary vectors, respectively, of the nocturnally subperiodic race, whereas, coquillettidia crassipes is a vector of the diurnally subperiodic race. although several anopheles species have been incriminated extensively as natural and/or suspected vectors of b. malayi, little is ... | 2013 | 23289957 |
| on coquilleitidia crassipes, a new record for macau, with a key to adults of the subgenera and species groups of the genus. | coquillettidia (coquillettidia) crassipes is recorded for the 1st time in the territory of macau, southern china. the systematics of the genus is examined, new species groups are proposed, and a key to subgenera and species groups of coquillettidia is provided. | 2000 | 10901628 |
