Feeding preferences of Anopheles sundaicus in Car Nicobar Island.

R Kumari1, H Joshi, A Giri, V P Sharma.   

Abstract

Host feeding behaviour of An. sundaicus population in Car Nicobar Island was studied by bloodmeal analysis and bait collection. Results indicated the zoophagic nature of the species in different resting sites. However, a human blood index of 0.18 was observed in specimens collected from human dwellings. The highest proportion of females was found positive for porcine antigen. Bait collections also indicated a similar feeding pattern.
