Abstract
The accumulation species richness curve indicated that the number of mosquito species in natural habitats (138) was significantly higher than in artificial containers (33) (t = 23.30, df = 442.620, I p i < 0.001) (Figure 8). Aquatic Habitat Preferences The most preferred natural habitats for mosquito species were ground pools, stream pools, and rock pools, which supported 55, 39, and 37 species, respectively. Correlation of Mosquito Species with Habitat Types Detrended correspondence analysis indicated that the distribution of species of each genus of mosquitoes correlated with habitat types (Figure 11). While comparing the diversity of mosquito species in natural and artificial habitats, it was discovered, as expected, that natural habitats support many more species than artificial habitats. Doi Inthanon National Park is primarily comprised of forested areas that provide a variety of habitats for various mosquito species, whereas artificial habitats are generally found in villages, agricultural areas, and some tourist sites, which are minor areas of the park and are unsuitable for many species other than I Ae i .
