在泰国北方丘陵地带的疟疾控制行动中，对四个村庄的微小按蚊进行了研究，这些村庄经历了不同程度的滴滴涕施用。在高人口水平的时候，蚊子的行为进行了评估，在室内和室外咬人，从国内牛科动物喂养。最近用过滴滴涕的村庄的反应与几年来没有用过滴滴涕的村庄的反应不同，因此这种杀虫剂几乎没有直接的致命作用。此外，杀虫剂对昆虫行为的影响比化学品的致死作用要长得多。有人认为A.极小细胞可以包括两种或更多种形态学上隐蔽的物种。
Anopheles minimus Theobald was studied in four villages that had experienced differing levels of DDT application during malaria control operations in the foothills of northern Thailand. During times of high population level, the behaviour of the mosquito was assessed with respect to man-biting indoors and outdoors and feeding from domestic bovids. Its responses in villages recently treated with DDT differed from those in villages that had not been treated for several years, so that the insecticide had little direct lethal effect. Furthermore, the influence of the insecticide on the behaviour of the insect was considerably longer than is the lethal effect of the chemical. There was a suggestion that the taxon A. minimus may include two or more morphologically-cryptic species.
