Abstract
Efficiency of the light trap in collecting females of Culex tritaeniorhynchus, the principal vector mosquito of Japanese encephalitis, was evaluated by mark-release-recapture experiments. Females collected with dry ice in the field were marked and released in a pigsty. The recapture rate of marked females by the light trap was so low as around 1% or lower. Owing to this low efficiency, it is not likely that the light trap can be a useful tool in the control of Japanese encephalitis.
