The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Medicine and Public Health. 1989 Jun; 20(2): 175-7http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/33952The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Medicine and Public Health.The blood meals of mosquito vectors of W. bancrofti and B. malayi were determined by performing CIEP of the eluant of crushed mosquitoes in filter paper against rabbit anti-human, cow and pig sera. The mosquitoes were collected from houses, cowsheds and pigpens in two counties in Guizhou Province. It was shown that all three species fed on blood from humans, cows and pigs with different preference. While An sinensis fed more on cows, Cx. fatigans and An. lesteri fed on the hosts that were nearby, i.e., Cx. fatigans caught from households fed more on humans, and those collected from cowsheds or pigpens fed more on cows and pigs, respectively.engAnimalsAnophelesBloodCattleChinaCulexFeeding BehaviorHumansInsect VectorsRabbitsSwineBlood meals of mosquito vectors of filariasis in Guizhou Province, China.Journal Article
