N2 - Field tests were conducted with Romanomermis culicivorax Ross & Smith, 1978 as control of mosquito larvae in three natural sites located in Oaxaca State, Mexico. Infective nematodes were disseminated at 1000/m2. Both species of mosquito larvae were infected but populations of anopheline mosquitoes were more susceptible than culicine.
