Distribution of Anopheles stephensi and other mosquito species in India, 2022

This dataset contains locations and species of mosquitoes collected during fieldwork in India in 2022. Mosquito adults and larvae were collected from 4 locations: Bangalore, Udaipur, Delhi and Mumbai. The focus was on collecting Anopheles mosquitoes, but other species were also collected. Anopheles mosquitoes transmit malaria, so changes in their distribution raises concern for the spread of this disease.
