Objective: To understand the ecological behaviors of Anopheles pseudowillmori and A. willmori in medium or high altitude areas of Motuo County, Tibet Autonomous Region, and their transmission potential for malaria.
Methods: The methods of human net traps, cow baited trap, house baited trap, pig baited trap and CDC light traps were adopted for investigating the mosquito density, biting activity at night and in or out door preference of biting.

Objective: To determine the blood-sucking habit of anopheline by mosquitoes bloodmeal identification in malaria endemic area Chayu County, Tibet Autonomous Region.
Methods: Three villages with different bio-environments were selected as the investigation spots. Light traps were set up outdoor and in livestock sheds from sunset (20:00) to sunrise (8:00) in 3-4 consecutive nights to collect mosquitoes.

Article Synopsis
- - The study conducted in July 2006 focused on malaria epidemiology in Motuo County, Tibet, involving surveys on malaria history, blood sample collection, and mosquito collection in selected villages.
- - Results revealed a malaria history rate of 8.98% and a parasite rate of 3.13%, all identified as P. vivax, with a notable malaria antibody rate of 40.24% among the local populace.
- - The main vector identified was An. maculatus, with significant indoor and outdoor biting rates, indicating that Motuo County is an endemic region for vivax malaria.

Article Synopsis
- The study focused on identifying malaria-carrying mosquitoes in Motuo County, Tibet, by collecting various mosquito species in different natural villages during July and August 2007.
- A total of 5345 anopheline mosquitoes were captured, with the majority being An. pseudowillmori, indicating this species is prevalent in the area and exhibits a preference for cattle blood over human blood.
- The findings highlight An. pseudowillmori's significant role in malaria transmission and point to rice fields as key breeding sites for mosquito larvae.
