This observational survey analyzes mosquito diversity in relation to climatic factors, highlighting significant implications for pest management.
The distribution, abundance, growth and reproduction of organisms comprising different species populations are influenced by various environmental factors. A survey was conducted during the period 2014–2015 and 2015–2016 to study mosquito fauna in the Bareilly Terai region. Three major genera, Anopheles, Culex, and Aedes were predominantly recorded. A total of 28 species were identified, showing seasonal variations in their population percentage. Climatic factors such as temperature, humidity, rainfall, and moisture significantly influenced mosquito diversity and abundance. The annual average percentage ratio of these genera has been analyzed and reported in this study.
