Bromeliad-associated mosquitoes from Atlantic forest in Santa Catarina Island, southern Brazil (Diptera, Culicidae), with new records for the State of Santa Catarina
Provedor de dados: Iheringia Série Zoologia
Autores: Müller,Gerson Azulim; Marcondes,Carlos Brisola.
Bromeliad-associated mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in Atlantic Forest in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, southern Brazil, were studied, examining plants of Vriesea philippocoburgi Wawra and Aechmea lindenii (E. Morren) Baker var. lindenii at secondary Atlantic rain forest, and A. lindenii and Vriesea friburgensis Mez var. paludosa (L. B. Smith) at "restinga" per month, during 12 months. No immature forms of mosquitoes were collected from A. lindenii in the secondary forest. Collections obtained 368 immature mosquitoes, none of them from A. lindenii from rain forest. Culex (Microculex) spp. constituted 79.8% of the total, Wyeomyia (Phoniomyia) spp. 17.93%, and Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii (Dyar &amp;amp; Knab, 1908) only 1.36%. The study shows the great...

Provedor de dados: Institutional Archive of Ifreme (ArchiMer)
Autores: Kengne, Pierre; Charmantier, Guy; Blondeau‐bidet, Eva; Costantini, Carlo; Ayala, Diego.
Salinity tolerance is an important trait that governs the ecology of disease‐vector mosquitoes by determining their choice of larval habitat, and consequently their ecological and geographical distribution. Here, we used laboratory strains to determine the osmotic responses of larvae of obligate freshwater disease‐vector mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, Anopheles coluzzii, An. gambiae, Culex pipiens, and Cx. quinquefasciatus) and assessed their relationship with salinity tolerance. First, we analyzed the acute dose–mortality response of fourth‐instar larvae to salinity; then, we measured their hemolymph osmolality after 24‐h exposure to varying salinities. We found that Ae. albopictus was the most tolerant species, followed by An. coluzzii,...

The impact of insecticide resistance on Culex pipiens immunity
Provedor de dados: Institutional Archive of Ifreme (ArchiMer)
Autores: Vezilier, Julien; Nicot, Antoine; De Lorgeril, Julien; Gandon, Sylvain; Rivero, Ana.
Because of their role as vectors of diseases, the evolution of insecticide resistance in mosquitoes has been intensively investigated. Insecticide resistance is associated to a wide range of pleiotropic effects on several key life-history traits of mosquitoes such as longevity and behavior. However, despite its potential implications in pathogen transmission, the effects of insecticide resistance on mosquito immunity have received little, if any, attention. Here, we investigate the impact of insecticide resistance in Culex pipiens, an epidemiologically important vector of a wide array of pathogens. Using both isogenic laboratory strains and field-caught mosquitoes, we investigate the impact of two main insecticide resistance mechanisms (metabolic...

Ultrastructure of the eggs of two species of Anopheles (Anopheles) Meigen (Diptera, Culicidae)
Provedor de dados: Revista Brasileira de Entomologia
Autores: Sallum,Maria Anice Mureb; Flores,Daniel Corugedo.
Egg ultrastructure of two morphologicaly similar species of the Arribalzagia Series, Anopheles (A.) costai Fonseca &amp;amp; Ramos, 1939 and A. (A.) mediopunctatus (Lutz, 1903) are described and illustrated using scanning electron micrographs. Although similar in the adult stage, male genitalia structures and larval and pupal stages, the eggs of these species are distinct. The eggs of A. costai and A. mediopunctatus are compared with that of A. forattinii Wilkerson &amp;amp; Sallum, 1999. Incomplete illustration of egg of A. forattinii is provided for comparison.

A survey of the Anopheles Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) along the Acre And Purus Rivers, Amazon Basin, Brazil
Provedor de dados: Acta Amazonica
Autores: ZIMMERMAN,Robert H; PAULINO,Francisco Xavier; ARRUDA,Mercia de.
From January 19 to February 25, 1997 an entomological survey of the seringais and larger towns along the Acre and Purus rivers was made as part of the project “Revisitando a Amazônia de Carlos Chagas; da Borracha a Biodiversidad”. Eleven anopheline species and 1285 specimens were collected landing on human baits. The four most abundant species were Anopheles albitarsis s.l. (n=778), A. darlingi (n=359), A. rangeli (n=69) and A. oswaldoi (n=60). A total of 252 larvae were collected of which 10 anopheline species were identified. The most abundant species collected were A. albitarsis s.l. (n=88), A. deaneorum (n=45) and A. triannulatus (n=40). The low numbers of Anopheles collected and the absence of the principal malaria vector A. darlingi at the seringais...

Autores: Marcondes,Carlos Brisola; Fernandes,Aristides; Müller,Gerson Azulim.
Anopheline and other mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in the southern Brazilian State of Santa Catarina have been studied mostly near the Atlantic sea coast and are not well known in other regions of the state. Collections were made near a reservoir in the western portion of the state. At least 26 species were represented in the collections; 10 are recorded for the first time for the state: Coquillettidia venezuelensis, Cq. juxtamansonia, Mansonia wilsoni, Ochlerotatus fluviatilis, Psorophora ciliata, Ps. discrucians, Ps. lanei, Culex bigoti, Sabethes belisarioi and Sa. identicus, and 12 for the first time in the western portion of the state: Anopheles albitarsis, An. intermedius, An. lutzi, An. parvus, An. strodei, Chagasia fajardi, Cx. quinquefasciatus,...

Spotlight on Plasmodium falciparum evolutionary system in the southeastern Atlantic forest
Provedor de dados: Biota Neotropica
Autores: Laporta,Gabriel Zorello.
Abstract Malaria elimination is now set to occur in Brazil until 2030. While this achievement is feasible, as it is for other endemic regions worldwide, it is important to recognize resistance of parasites and vectors against anti-malarial interventions. Resistance against drugs and insecticides can lead to discontinuities of malaria transmission, known as residual malaria transmission. Herein, we described a novel phenomenon that is occurring in a residual malaria transmission scenario in the southeastern Atlantic forest. This novel phenomenon does not belong to what is known and therefore we decided to explain it based on an evolutionary perspective. Although it shall not be viewed as a threat to public health, the phenomenon has important aspects that...
