    Author: Partono F, Purnomo, Atmosoedjono S.
    Journal: Southeast Asian J Trop Med Public Health; 1977 Sep; 8(3):371-4. PubMed ID: 24275.
    Abstract:
    Laboratory reared Aedes aegypti (black eye and Jakarta strains), Aedes togoi, (Taiwan), Aedes albopictus, (Jakarta), wild caught Anopheles barbirostris, (Java) and Mansonia uniformis, (Jakarta) were fed on a carrier with mixed infection of Brugia timori and Wuchereria bancrofti. B. timori and W. bancrofti were able to develop in A. aegypti (black eye) and A. togoi, with development proceeding more rapidly for of B. timori than W. bancrofti. Both species of parasites were readily distinguishable in each of their developmental stages. A. barbirostris from Java was able to support development of B. timori as well as A. barbirostris from Flores. B. timori and W. bancrofti did not develop in M. uniformis, A. aegypti (Jakarta strain) and A. albopictus.
