In rubber plantations, Aedes albopictus was the most frequent mosquito, together with a high proportion of filarial and malaria vectors. Because of the many breeding sites represented by the latex cups, heavy downpour during the rainy season probably transforms the rubber plantation ecosystems into mosquito-borne disease-transmitting systems. In the forest, a different composition of the mosquito fauna was observed, but A. albopictus was also the most frequent mosquito. Its presence and its different metric properties in the forest could suggest the possible existence of native populations in Thailand, in accordance with the hypothesis of its Southeast Asian origin. specialized ASIE DU SUD EST 052 122 Morand S. ed. edt IRD Dujardin Jean-Pierre ed. edt IRD Lefait-Robin R. ed. edt IRD Apiwathnasorn C. ed. edt IRD 171-190 Singapour Springer 2015 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010065588 10.1007/978-981-287-527-3_11 978-981-287-526-6 ; 978-981-287-527-3 [F A010065580] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010065588 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2021-09/010065588.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2015-09-25 2021-09-01 fdi:010065588 fre
