Abstract
OBJECTIVE: A Aedes aegypti population from an area of dengue transmission was studied to determine mosquito's frequency, spatial distribution, parity, its ovarian development and midgut contents. METHODS: The study carried out in São José do Rio Preto country, São Paulo, SP, Brazil. Low and intermediate socioeconomic level regions were chosen to the study, which was carried out 1996 and 1997. Using a manual electric aspirator, captures were performed inside and outside the houses. Dissections were conducted to allow classify female mosquitoes according to their physiologic state. RESULTS: One hundred and eighty-eight males and 189 females were captured in both regions. A general index of 0.46 Ae. aegypti females per house was determined. Of the total sample, 82.4% of males and 87.3% of females were collected indoors. Greater proportions of females were found in the region of low socioeconomic level, and higher population density. One hundred and forty-eight female mosquitoes were analyzed: 27.0% were nulliparous and 10.1% parous. The rest were classified as Christophers and Mer's (C & M) phases III to V, 28.0% of which had red blood in their midgut. Of the total female population, 87.9% had bloodmeals. CONCLUSIONS: The mosquito species revealed a high degree of endophily. There was a higher proportion of nulliparous mosquitoes, although the majority of the females were classified as C & M's phases III to V. These results highlight both the great number of females who had had bloodmeals, and the lack of gonotrophic concordance.
