dc.description.abstractSpecies compositions in mosquito larval abundance and productivity were assessed in three selected breeding habitats namely, gutters, swamps, and large water bodies located in Bosso, Katcha, Lapai, and Shiroro local government areas (LGAs) of Niger State, Nigeria. The experimental field design that involved opened and closed cage studies were employed, mosquitoes were sampled by dipping and agitation techniques. A total of seven species namely, Aedes aegypti, Ae. dorsalis, Anopheles gambiae, An. coustani, Culex quinquefasciatus, Cx. nigripalpus, and Cx. salinarius were morphologically identified. The findings revealed, large water bodies as the most productive habitats with the varying number of all the species encountered that aggregated at a high quantity followed by gutters and least was the swamps. The rainy season (June -August) was the peak of abundance and productions of all the stages of mosquitoes studied in the seasons, while November was the least (dry season).
