چکیده

This study presents the first report of Aedes aegypti laying eggs on water surface an artificial breeding site in field. occurred city Rio de Janeiro inside a white bucket containing 11 liters rainwater. Conspecific larvae had previously been found this bucket. From 219 obtained, 135 (61.6%) were laid and 84 (38.3%) border Larvae (4th instar) adults obtained from identified as A. aegypti. behavior may influence population dynamics expands knowledge about species adaptation. confirms species’ ability to lay sites field suggests hypothesis that pheromones females water.

Aedes aegypti eggs oviposited on water surface collected from field ovitraps in Nova Iguaçu City, Brazil.

INTRODUCTION Aedes aegypti eggs can be collected from the water surface. METHODS Aedes aegypti oviposition from 97 field ovitraps was studied. RESULTS Of the 16,016 eggs collected, 11,439 were obtained from paddles in ovitraps and 4,577 from water. Further, 89 (91.8%) traps contained eggs on water and 22 (22.7%) traps contained eggs only on water. CONCLUSIONS In field traps, Aedes aegypti...

Influence of breeding site availability on the oviposition behaviour of Aedes aegypti

Despite the importance of the mosquito Aedes aegypti in the transmission of arboviruses, such as yellow fever, Chikungunya fever and dengue fever, some aspects of their behaviour remain unknown. In the present study, the oviposition behaviour of Ae. aegypti females that were exposed to different densities of breeding sites (2, 4, 8 and 16) was evaluated in laboratory and semi-field conditions. ...

[Effect of larval rearing water on Aedes aegypti oviposition in the laboratory].

To evaluate the influence of larval rearing water on Aedes aegypti oviposition, four types of water were provided for gravid females. It was observed that more eggs were laid in the mixed larval rearing water (2,837) than in the Aedes albopictus water (690) or control water (938), but that this number was similar to what was seen in the Aedes aegypti water (2,361).
