| [seasonal variation of three culex species (diptera: culicidae) and its parasites and pathogens in punta lara, buenos aires, argentina]. | the seasonality of immatures, imagoes and pathogens of culex dolosus lynch arribálzaga, culex intrincatus brethes and culex maxi dyar from punta lara (buenos aires province, argentina) was monitored weekly (larvae and pupae) or fortnightly (adults), from 1989 to 1991. culex dolosus was present during all months. the larvae were parasitized by geotrichum candidum link ex person, smittium morbosum var. rioplatensis lópez lastra, coelomomyces sp., achlya sp, amblyospora dolosi garcía & becnel and s ... | 1997 | 9404524 |
| culex mosquitoes in temporary urban rain pools: seasonal dynamics and relation to environmental variables. | the study was conducted in a park of buenos aires city, where a total of 89 rain pools were sampled weekly for mosquito immature stages over a one-year period. the aim of the present paper was to investigate the seasonal dynamics of three culex species breeding in temporary rain pools and to analyze the relationships of the presence of these species to pool dimensions, pool age, vegetation, and insolation degree. the three species showed differences in their seasonal patterns, culex dolosus bein ... | 2004 | 15707296 |
| culicidae (diptera) selection of humans, chickens and rabbits in three different environments in the province of chaco, argentina. | studies were conducted to determine the selection of humans, chickens and rabbits by culicidae in three different environments in the province of chaco, argentina. mosquitoes were collected fortnightly using cylindrical metal traps containing animal bait (chickens and rabbits). the mosquitoes were collected between june 2001-may 2002. during the same period and with the same frequency, mosquitoes biting the human operators of the traps were collected during the first 15 min of exposure within di ... | 0 | 23903970 |
| occurrence of immature forms of culicids (insecta: diptera) in the northeastern region of brazil. | the culicidae family is represented by approximately 3,610 species, among which many are involved in transmission of pathogens and parasites, thus presenting great medical-veterinary importance. in brazil, the state of pernambuco is considered an endemic area for many diseases vectored by mosquitoes, such as human and canine filariasis, caused by wuchereria bancrofti and dirofilaria immitis, respectively. the aim of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of immature forms of culicids, over an ... | 2014 | 25054499 |
| classification of immature mosquito species according to characteristics of the larval habitat in the subtropical province of chaco, argentina. | to classify mosquito species based on common features of their habitats, samples were obtained fortnightly between june 2001-october 2003 in the subtropical province of chaco, argentina. data on the type of larval habitat, nature of the habitat (artificial or natural), size, depth, location related to sunlight, distance to the neighbouring houses, type of substrate, organic material, vegetation and algae type and their presence were collected. data on the permanence, temperature, ph, turbidity, ... | 2011 | 21739026 |
| host range of the parasite strelkovimermis spiculatus (nematoda: mermithidae) in argentina mosquitoes. | strelkovimermis spiculatus (poinar and camino 1986) is a nematode parasite of mosquitoes isolated from the neotropical region. we investigated the host range of this parasite in mosquito populations for a better understanding of the dynamics of temporary breeding sites. five grassy-pool habitats filled by rainwater were sampled from the summer 2007 through the fall 2008. eight mosquito species were collected: anopheles albitarsis, culex chidesteri, culex dolosus, culex maxi, aedes albifasciatus, ... | 2013 | 23701609 |
