Introducing a new and accesible protein analysed diet for the larval stage in breeding Anopheles stephensi (Diptera: Culicidae)

Background: Globalization, travel and business, unplanned urbanization and environmental challenges such as climate change have had a significant impact on the transmission of diseases in recent years. This has led to the emergence of diseases such as Chikungunya, Dengue fever, Rift Valley fever, Yellow fever, West Nile virus and Zika in countries that were previously unknown.Aedes mosquitoes transmit Chikungunya, Dengue fever, Rift Valley fever, Yellow fever, and Zika diseases.Objectives This study was conducted to investigate the fauna of Aedes mosquitoes and care and control of the main vector of zika virus, dengue fever and chikungunya.Materials and Methods: Based on the research strategies of the cities, the cities of the province were selected for introduction and placement of the Aedes mosquitoes (Ramsar, Noshahr, Fereydunkenar and Amol) in the Weast of the province, and by the method of installing the ovitrap, larval fishing and human baited trap May to November In 2016, insect studies and collecting samples were taken..Results: In this study, a total of 1593 mosquitoes, including 1324 larvae and 263 adult mosquitoes, were collected and identified. 58.4% of the adult samples and 14% of the larvae were from the Aedes genus.Ae (Adm.) Vexans, Ae. (Fin.) geniculatus, Ae. (Fin.) echinus and Ae.(Fin) flavescenswere identified as adult and larvae among the specimens.Conclusion: The monitoring of medical entomology should beconducted annually in the mosquito activity seasons as an integrated program in the health care system of the country in order to know the arrival of the main vector mosquito of Zika, Dengue fever ,Chikungunya, Yellow fever and Rift Valley feverat the earliest time to the area and to take the necessary timely steps to Preventing their publication.,Chikungunya, Yellow fever and Rift Valley fever at the earliest time to the area and to take the necessary timely steps to Preventing their publication..
