Abstract

Indonesia is one country that is still at risk of malaria. The high intensity distribution of malaria in Indonesia is found in forested areas, especially in Eastern Indonesia. Malaria cases are mainly reported from outside Java, namely in Papua, Maluku, Nusa Tenggara, Kalimantan and Sumatra. This study was conducted to obtain and survey bionomic Anopheles sp in Saumlaki, West Southeast Maluku Regency (MTB). The cross-sectional study was conducted at the Aulusi Kelaan Health Center, Komormolin District and Waturu Health Center, Nirumas Sub-District, West Southeast Maluku Regency. The entomological survey in the form of larvae density survey was carried out in Aulusi and Waturu. Collection of Anopheles sp adult mosquitoes by using landing man from 18.00-06.00 and Anopheles habitat survey. Anopheles sp habitat was found in water reservoirs from car tires, drums, ponds, used boats and semi-permanent ponds. The results were obtained by several types of Anopheles sp including Anopheles flavirostris (91%), Anopheles barbirostris group (8.2%), Anopheles farauti (0.9%) and Anopheles koliensis (0.04%). Anopheles flavirostris and Anopheles barbirostris group have quite high species density. The activity bites Anopheles sp on average from 22.00-23.00 and is more commonly found outside the home. Anopheles sp mosquito found in West Southeast Maluku Regency is An. flavirostris, An. barbirostris group (An. barbirostris and An. campestris), An. farauti and An. Koliensis and the average biting activity at 22.00 - 23.00. Based on the results, it is adviable to reduce activities outside the house at night. If you have to do activities at night, it is recommended to use repellent or long-sleeved clothes to prevent anopheles mosquito bites.
