Abstract
Laboratory studies conducted on Ma. annulifera collected from Cherthala region, Kerala, endemic for Brugian filariasis indicated that this species is highly susceptible to B. malayi parasites. The experimental infection index of this species was relatively higher (2.74). No significant loss of larvae during development was recorded. The extrinsic incubation period was estimated to be 8 days.Entities:
