Discover the map that tracks where the malaria‑carrying Anopheles mosquitoes have been found in England and Wales—and what that means for science and public health.
This nonfiction work presents a detailed map and accompanying notes that show localities where Anopheles has been recorded, plus explanations on how to read the data, the limits of the map, and the life history of the species known to occur in the region. It offers historical context, sources, and practical observations that help readers understand mosquito distribution and behavior during the period covered.
The book compiles records from various institutions and researchers, clarifying how the map should be interpreted. It explains that the map indicates where searches were conducted and where records exist, not a definitive guide to every location. It also includes descriptions of the environmental conditions that favor these mosquitoes and outlines differences between species, including how they overwinter and emerge in spring.Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
