Influence of environmental factors on the abundance of Anopheles farauti larvae in large brackish water streams in Northern Guadalcanal, Solomon Islands

Hugo Bugoro, Jeffery Hii, Tanya L Russell, Robert D Cooper, Benny KK Chan, Charles Iro'ofa, Charles Butafa, Allen Apairamo, Albino Bobogare, Cheng-Chen Chen Malaria Journal 2011, 10:262 (13 September 2011)

This study has demonstrated that the presence and abundance Anopheles farauti larvae are influenced by environmental factors within the large streams. Understanding these parameters will allow for targeted cost effective implementation of source reduction and larviciding to support the frontline malaria control measures, including IRS and LLIN.
