Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies · 2017 · Vol. 5(6) · pp. 566–571

Abstract

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) causes Japanese encephalitis, which is a leading form of viral encephalitis in Asia, with around 50,000 cases and 10,000 deaths per year in children below 15 years of age. The JEV has shown a tendency to extend to other geographic regions. Mosquitoes acts as potent vectors in spreading the viruses to humans. A selected group/ species of mosquitoes acts as vector in the presence of suitable host and dead end host. In this review the details regarding the vector have been discussed and summarized.
