Abstract

The importance of blood-sucking mosquitoes as carriers of dirofilariasis pathogens in the city of Omsk and in suburban areas is shown. Candidates for the role of dirofillariasis vectors in in these territories, belonging to the genera Aedes, Ochlerotatus, Culex, Anopheles, have been identified. Their calculated infestation was determined. The periods of risk of infection were calculated for species emerging in the second decade of May (Ae.cinereus, O.flavescens, An.messeae) and species emerging closer to the end of May (O. dorsalis, O. excrucians).
