Download or read book A Checklist of the Mosquitoes of Indonesia written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indonesia is represented by a varied mosquito fauna, embracing some 3450 know species of 2960 listed worldwide in Knight and Stone (1977). This is primarily a result of the widespread distribution of the country's many islands, which range from the southeastern Oriental Region across the Wallace and Weber lines to the northwestern Australian Region. This fauna has been, both during the colonial and post-colonial periods, the subject of many investigations in the fields of taxonomy, distribution, bionomics and disease relationships. While a few earlier checklists exist, none have been prepared specifically for Indonesia which take into account the extensive studies of the last 30 years. This paper is intended to fill that gap. The primary literature sources for these data were the Knight and Stone (1977) worldwide catalog and the supplement of Knight (1978). The arrangement of the various taxa follows their format.

This handbook is a foundational reference for all those working towards reducing the transmission of mosquito-borne diseases in the region. An overview of the diversity and distribution of mosquitoes throughout the Pacific, including checklists for the species present in each of the 22 Pacific Island countries and territories, is provided. For the mosquitoes that are common and/or of medical importance, one-page profiles are provided that include information about their key behaviours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ecology of Java and Bali is a comprehensive ecological survey of two of the most ecologically diverse islands in the Pacific. It also contains the results of original research, interviews and personal experience. It will be useful to resource managers, ecologists and government planners, as well as to all others interested in the region. Java and Bali are the best known of all the islands in the Indonesian archipelago. Nowhere else in the country are ecological issues of such importance, and nowhere else is there a better chance of the major development problems being solved. This is because Java has the greatest concentration of development projects, the densest population, excellent human resources, and the interest of many of the most powerful decision makers. Bali, meanwhile, has the eyes of the world on it as an important tourist destination enjoyed by both domestic and foreign visitors.
