The daily and seasonal biting patterns of the vectors of enzootic, zoonotic and human malarias, Anopheles dirus and Anopheles maculatus, in North Sumatra, Indonesia

Zoonotic malaria cases in humans are increasing across Southeast Asia including in Indonesia, but the vectors’ transmission dynamics are still poorly understood. Incriminating the vector species and defining their behaviours is essential to understanding zoonotic malaria transmis...

Genetic variability and population structure within the Anopheles tessellatus complex (Theobald, 1901) in Indonesia using ITS2 nuclear and COI, COII mitochondrial sequences

Abstract Some Anopheles species that act as malaria vectors are members of species complexes, a concept whereby sibling species cannot be differentiated solely on the basis of morphological characters. Therefore, species complexes represent a major problem in malaria vector contr...
