This is an up-to-date and comprehensive handbook that presents a wealth of information on the different aspects of one of the largest dipterous family, Culicidae (mosquitoes). India shares more than 10% of the global mosquito fauna and some of the deadliest mosquito species occur in the country, implying that globally, India has always been in the forefront of research and control of such mortifying and/or debilitating diseases as malaria, lymphatic filariasis, dengue, chikungunya, Zika, Japanese encephalitis, West Nile Virus, etc. This book illustrates updated information, includ-ing chemical, biological, herbal, and genetical, on the control of vectors, and showcases mosquito preponderance in the neighbouring countries. The book additionally deals with the biosafety prin-ciples in theory and practice, use of emerging science of artificial intelligence in mosquito iden-tity and control, and, of course, consideration of mosquitoes in human psyche. This authoritative account is a crucial reference source for mosquito- borne disease control and prevention. This book is meant for researchers, university students, medical entomologists, parasitologists, and public health professionals.
