SS = susceptible (< 10 R)

RS = intermediate (10–50% R)

RR = resistant (> .50% R) (According to Herath, 1997)

Pro = propoxur

Mal = malathion

Fen = fenitrothion

λ-cy = λ-cyhalothrin

Del = deltamethrin

Per = permethrin

Cyp = cypermethrin

Cyf = cyfluthrin

Eto = etofenprox

CE = carboxylesterase

GST = glutathione S-transferase

Mono = monooxygenase

MCE = malathion carboxylesterase

aAChE = altered acetylcholinesterase

+ = mechanism present at low level, ++ = mechanism present at moderate level, +++ = mechanism present at high level - = absence of mechanism
