Susceptibility of the floodwater mosquito Aedes albifasciatus from eggs of different dormancy times to the nematode parasite Strelkovimermis spiculatus
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-07)
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of egg dormancy times on susceptibility of larvae of the floodwater mosquito Aedes albifasciatus (Diptera: Culicidae) to parasitism by their natural enemy Strelkovimermis spiculatus ...
Predation on Eggs of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae): Temporal Dynamics and Identification of Potential Predators During the Winter Season in a Temperate Region
(Entomological Society of America, 2019-05)
In temperate regions, the populations of Aedes aegypti (L.) remain in the egg stage during the cold season. The ability of these eggs to survive until the next favorable season is affected by several mortality factors, ...
Brazil's first free-mating laboratory colony of Nyssorhynchus darlingi
(Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2019)
INTRODUCTION: The lack of highly-productive Nyssorhynchus darlingi laboratory colonies limits some studies. We report the first well-established laboratory colony of Ny. darlingi in Brazil. METHODS: Mosquitoes were collected ...
Ultrastructure and morphometry of the egg of Psorophora albipes (Theobald, 1907) (Diptera: Culicidae)
(Magnolia Press, 2017-09)
The eggs of Psorophora albipes were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and described based on a morphometric analysis of the main structures observed. We used eggs from a female caught in the Poço das Antas ...

Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) is a mosquito broadly found in tropical and temperate areas of the world. It is the main vector of dengue, chikungunya, zika and yellow fever (urban cycle), among other viruses. Aedes ...
Optimizing laboratory production of Strelkovimermis spiculatus (Nematoda: Mermithidae) with a discussion of potential release strategies for mosquito biological control
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2011-01)
Strelkovimermis spiculatus preparasite (J2) infectivity and postparasite (J4) production in rearing pans using a laboratory host, second instar Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. First, we evaluated efficiency of postparasite ...
Pre-oviposition behavior of Aedes aegypti in field: First report of eggs laying on water surface in an artificial breeding sitePre-oviposition behavior of Aedes aegypti in the field: first report of eggs laying on water surface in an artificial breeding site in the city of Rio de Janeiro
