Species Diversity Investigation of Mosquitoes in Taihang Mountain Area(Anyang, Hebi Section)
Objective To research species diversity of mosquitoes in Taihang Mountain area(Anyang,Hebi section)of Henan Province. Method Adult mosquitoes in livestock sheds and villagers living room were collected by labor hour method. Larvae in the nearby rivers and potholes water were observed and identified at the same time. Results 748 adult mosquitoes and 319 larvae were collected in this research,these mosquitoes belong to 4 genera and 9 species, such as An. sinensis,An. pattoni,Cx. pipiens pallens,Cx. tritaeniorhynchus,Cx. Pseudovishnui,Cx. sinensis,Ae. albopictus,Ae. vexans and Ar. Subalbatus. The density index of Anyang section is higher than Hebi section. Conclu-sion The advantage mosquitoes in Taihang Mountain area(Anyang,Hebi section)is Ar. Subalbatus,Cx. Pseudovish-nui and Ar. subalbatus were followed. The ratios were 57.14%,16.75%and 9.85%. The density index difference was coursed by precipitation difference of tow sections. This phenomenon illustrated that the survival of the mosquitoes is related to ecological system factors such as climate and environmental,this research was also influenced by these fac-tors.
