Anopheles species collected in study sites in Kudat Division, Sabah from August 2013 to July 2014.
Fig 2.
Bites/Man/Night of An. balabacensis measured each month in three study sites over time.
a. Limbuak Laut, b. Timbang Dyang, c. Kg Paradason. Error bars are 95%CI.
Table 2.
Generalised linear mixed model fitting of the data.
The model used is of the form “glmm<-glmmadmb (parameter ~ locality+(1|month), zero Inflation = T, data = data,family = "pdf")”. KP = Kampung Paradason, LL = Limbuak Laut, TD = Timbang Dayang. AIC = Akaike information criterion. Means with different superscript letters indicate they are significantly different.

Percentage of An. balabacensis (out of the total collected) that were captured biting at each hour of the nightly sampling period (18:00–6:00hrs)in each study sites (pooled across all months of collection).
a. Limbuak Laut, b. Timbang Dyang, c. Kg Paradason. Error bars are 95%CI.

Annual infection rates, man-biting rate, entomological inoculation rate, parous rate, probability of daily survival, life expectancy and vectorial capacity of An. balabacensis in study sites.

Fig 5.
Infection rates and entomological inoculation rate (EIR) of An. balabacensis in the study sites.
The solid blue line connects the points of EIR for An. balabacensis. Bars indicate the infection rates, which are sporozoite (dark grey with 95% confidence interval) and oocysts rate (light grey with 95% confidence interval). Alphabet denotes the study sites: a Limbuak Laut; bTimbang Dayang; cKg Paradason.
