| description |
Species compositions in mosquito larval abundance and productivity were
assessed in three selected breeding habitats namely, gutters, swamps, and large water
bodies located in Bosso, Katcha, Lapai, and Shiroro local government areas (LGAs)
of Niger State, Nigeria. The experimental field design that involved opened and closed
cage studies were employed, mosquitoes were sampled by dipping and agitation
techniques. A total of seven species namely, Aedes aegypti, Ae. dorsalis, Anopheles
gambiae, An. coustani, Culex quinquefasciatus, Cx. nigripalpus, and Cx. salinarius
were morphologically identified. The findings revealed, large water bodies as the most
productive habitats with the varying number of all the species encountered that
aggregated at a high quantity followed by gutters and least was the swamps. The rainy
season (June -August) was the peak of abundance and productions of all the stages of
mosquitoes studied in the seasons, while November was the least (dry season). |
