Two strains of Plasmodium vivax (NAM and ONG) were isolated from Vietnamese refugees and established in splenectomized Aotus monkeys from Colombia and Bolivia. Mosquito infections were readily obtained from animals with no prior malarial experience or with a history of infection with P. falciparum only. Those animals with previous infections with P. vivax supported only low parasitemias, and the mosquito infections were minimal. Complete development of the sporogonic cycle was obtained with all species of mosquitoes tested. The most susceptible mosquito was An. dirus. Other mosquitoes readily infected with these strains were An. culicifacies, An. maculatus, An. gambiae, An. stephensi, and the two North American species, An. freeborni and An. quadrimaculatus. Transmission from one monkey to another was obtained via the bites of infected An. dirus, An. stephensi, and An. maculatus mosquitoes.
