Mosquitoes of India
Biology, Phylotaxonomy, Host-Parasite Interaction and Resistance Development
About this book
This is an up-to-date and comprehensive handbook that presents a wealth of information on the different aspects of one of the largest dipterous family, Culicidae (Mosquitoes). India shares more than ten percent of the global mosquito fauna and this book provides an extensive inventory of extant taxa, along with a detailed description of the key identification features of medically important mosquitoes. This book illustrates updated information on insecticide-based mechanisms of resistance development in vectors and showcases varied host–parasite interactions. This authoritative account is a crucial reference source for mosquito-borne disease control and prevention. This book is meant for researchers, university students, medical entomologists, parasitologists, and public health professionals.
