  • Blood-feeding patterns of Anopheles mosquitoes in malaria-endemic areas of Sri Lanka 
    Gunathilaka, P.A.D.H.N.; Fernando, M.A.S.T.; Hapugoda, M.D.; Wijeyerathne, P.; Wickremasinghe, A.R.; Abeyewickreme, W. (University of Kelaniya, 2012)
    Background: Studies on host preference patterns in blood-feeding of anopheline mosquitoes are crucial for incriminating them as malaria vectors. However, little information is available on the host preferences of ...
  • Breeding of Anopheles culicifacies in different waterbodies in the district of Trincomalee 
    Gunathilaka, P.A.D.H.N.; Fernando, M.A.S.T.; Hapugoda, M.D.; Wijeyerathne, P.; Wickremasinghe, A.R.; Abeyewickreme, W. (University of Kelaniya, 2012)
    Introduction: Anopheles culicifacies (Diptera: Culicidae), the major vector of malaria in Sri Lanka is known to breed in clean and clear water. This study was focused to understand the larval habitats of the major malaria ...
  • Morphological differences among Anopheles subpictus sibling species B breeding in waste water habitats in Mannar District, Sri Lanka 
    Gunathilaka, P.A.D.H.N.; Fernando, M.A.S.T.; Premasiri, D.S.; Hapugoda, M.D.; Wijeyerathne, P.; Wickremasinghe, A.R.; Abeyewickreme, W. (University of Kelaniya, 2011)
    Anopheles culicifacies and An. subpictus are considered as the principal and subsidiary vector for malaria in Sri Lanka respectively. An. subpictus sibling species B has been specifically implicated in transmitting malaria ...
  • Prevalence of Anopheline species in Ampara district, Sri Lanka 
    Fernando, M.A.S.T.; Gunathilaka, P.A.D.H.N.; Hapugoda, M.D.; de Silva, B.G.D.N.K.; Wijeyerathne, P.; Abeyewickreme, W. (University of Kelaniya, 2012)
    Introduction: Investigating the presence of primary and secondary vectors of malaria in the selected areas where no entomological surveillance was carried out for about 30 years due to ethnic conflict. Objective: To study ...
  • Study on house dwelling Anopheline species in Batticaloa District, Sri Lanka 
    Fernando, M.A.S.T.; Gunathilaka, P.A.D.H.N.; Hapugoda, M.D.; Abeyewickreme, W.; de Silva, B.G.D.N.K.; Wijeyerathne, P. (University of Kelaniya, 2011)
    Even though the malaria cases are less, vectors which transmit the disease are still present. No proper vector surveys have been carried out in the eastern area of Sri Lanka for more than 30 years, due to the ethnic ...
