This paper aimed to investigate the Culicidae fauna in the state of Para?ba and review the possible pathogens vector
capacity of captured specimens. The catches occurred on November from day 17 to 21, 2014 in Mata do Buraquinho, Jo?o Pessoa/PB
and were performed with the use of aerial insect net and an oral aspirator. There were 88 Culicidae specimens collected from the
Buraquinho Forest. This is the first report of Aedes fulvithorax, A. scapularis, A. serratus, A. taeniorhynchus, Anopheles nimbus,
Coquillettidia albicosta, C. venezuelensis, Limatus durhamii and Mansonia titillans, also genus Wyeomyia in Para?ba state. The
capacity of these mosquitoes to transmit diseases, mainly arboviruses, outlines the need for epidemiological surveillance in the state. |
