A survey was conducted to determine the number and the species of mosquitoes which transmit diseases in Karachi with special reference to possible vector of Japanese encephalitis virus-Culex tritaeniorhynchus. This species has been found throughout Karachi. Four other species mosquitoes were also identified. With detection of 5 serological probable cases of JE in the larger study, the next question of an animal reservoir has arisen. (JPMA 36: 182, 1986).
