Abstract

Mosquitoes are small flying insects that are found all over the world, particularly in tropical and temperate regions. Currently, there are approximately 3,617 officially recognized species of mosquitoes. Many mosquito species are vectors of many important pathogens to humans and animals. However, different species of mosquitoes have different abilities to carry disease-causing pathogens. Therefore, planning to control mosquito-borne diseases requires information on the species diversity of vectors in the endemic area in order to be able to control them appropriately and effectively. The purpose of this study was to study the species diversity of mosquito vectors in Kubae Salo village, Kaluwo Sub-District, Mueang Narathiwat District, Narathiwat Province. A total of 1,214 mosquitoes were collected in this study, classified into 26 species in 10 genera (genus), of which 10 genera were found: Aedes, Aedeomyia, Anopheles, Armigeres, Coquillettidia, Culex, Mansonia, Mimomyia, Neomelanion, and Uranoteania. The value of the species diversity index of mosquitoes in Kubae Salo village, Kaluwo Sub-District, Mueang Narathiwat District, Narathiwat Province was 2.139 and the species evenness was 0.657. The most common mosquito species in this survey was An. sundaicus s.l. accounted for 3.96%, followed by Cq. ochracea accounted for 21.09%, Cq. crassipes accounted for 18.29%, Cx. gelidus accounted for 4.20%, and Ma. bonneae accounted for 3.71%, respectively. The results of this study could be useful in controlling mosquito vectors in Kubae Salo village, Kaluwo Sub-District, Mueang Narathiwat District, Narathiwat Province. It is also used as an entomological database for people to know about the risk of mosquito-borne diseases in the future.
