On the transmission of malaria by mosquitoes in winter
The authors studied the question raised by them for one year and came to the following conclusions. 1) The malaria parasite can overwinter in the body of a mosquito and in these cases is detected when the insect is dissected. 2) The infectivity of mosquitoes in winter is higher than in summer. 3) Infected An. maculipennis contain predominantly sporozoids and can therefore infect humans during winter and spring.
