Abstract
Relata-se o encontro de criadouros de Aedes scapularis em recipientes artificiais abandonados nos Municípios de Ilha Comprida e de Pariquera-Açu, Estado de São Paulo (Brasil). Foram coletadas 270 (250 larvas e 20 pupas) formas imaturas, o que permitiu levantar a hipótese de adaptação secundária desse mosquito ao ambiente antrópico. Este caracteriza-se pela diminuição de locais viáveis para instalação de criadouros no solo e, ao mesmo tempo, pelo incremento do número de recipientes artificiais os quais poderiam ser utilizados para a oviposição. Estima-se que, nesta parte da região Sudeste do Brasil, possam ocorrer implicações epidemiológicas em relação à transmissão de encefalite.
Breeding places of Aedes scapularis were found in the Ilha Comprida and Pariquera-Açu counties of S. Paulo State, Brazil. They included several types of artificial water container. As 270 (250 larvae and 20 pupae) immature forms were collected, the hypothesis is raised that behavioral change is occurring as a secondary adaptation, as a consequence of the anthropic environment. This tends toward a reduction in ground breeding places and, at the same time, to an increase in the number of artificial containers. So the synanthropic tendence of thus mosquito may be favored by or even be a result of the man-made environment. Reference is made to the epidemiological consequences of this phenomenon for encephalitis transmission specifically for the Southeastern region of Brazil.
