Studies on the bianomics and vector competence of adult anopheline mosquitoes in El Faiyoum governorate, Egypt

ABSTRACT

The results of this study showed the presence of four species of Anopheles [A. [C] pharoensis, A. [C] sergenti, A. [C] multicolor and A. [A] tenebrosus]. The most common species was A. pharoensis, followed by A. sergenti and A. multicolor. The least common was A. enebrosus. The highly infested area with Anopheles species was sinouris and the least was El-Siliyien. The bionomics and the vector competence of the adults of the four species were studied
