Anopheles superpictus larvae were collected from 64 larval breeding sites (54.2% of the total and 66.7% of the anopheline larval habitats) in July–October 2005 and June–August 2006. The maximum and minimum water temperatures of larval habitats were 32 °C and 19 °C, respectively, and mean temperature was 24.6 °C (SD = 3.6) for 22 larval breeding sites. The collecting localities: Baneh (Biandareh, 76 larvae; Chooman, 120 larvae; Sardab, 63 larvae), Bijar (Ghamchegha, 3 larvae), Dehgolan (Tahmasbgholi, 4 larvae), Divandareh (Gheshlaghsefid, 10 larvae; Hezarkanian, 53 larvae), Kamyaran (Islamabad, 8 larvae; Tangivar, 105 larvae), Sanandaj (Barghoroo, 13 larvae; Negel, 93 larvae; Torivar, 209 larvae), Saqqez (Ghagholabad, 1 larva; Siahdar-sofla, 20 larvae; Yapeshkhan, 6 larvae), and Sarvabad (Dezli, 189 larvae; Razab, 237 larvae).
