Temperature influence on embryonic development of Anopheles albitarsis and Anopheles aquasalis.

چکیده
Temperature influence on the embryonic development of Anopheles aquasalis and An. albitarsis was investigated. At 26 degrees C, 75% and 60% of respectively An. aquasalis and An. albitarsis eggs hatched, with one peak of eclosion, between the 2nd and 3rd day after oviposition. At 20 +/- 2 degrees C, around 66-70% of An. aquasalis eggs hatched, with one eclosion peak, on the 5th day. On the other hand, An. albitarsis eclosion at 21+/- 2 degrees C decreased to 10-22%, with two eclosion peaks, on the 4th-5th day and on the 9th-12th day. These data indicate a stronger temperature influence over An.albitarsis than over An. aquasalis embryos.

Phylogeography, Vectors and Transmission in Latin America
The overall focus of this chapter is the impact of phylogeographic studies on information pertinent to vector control, and an update on the relative importance and taxonomic status of five malaria vectors, some of which are species complexes, in the subgenus Nyssorhynchus: Anopheles albimanus Wiedmann, Albitarsis Complex, Anopheles aquasalis Curry, Anopheles darlingi Root, and Anopheles nunezto...
متن کاملAnopheles albitarsis embryogenesis: morphological identification of major events.
Anopheles albitarsis embryogenesis was analyzed through confocal microscopy of clarified eggs. Using Drosophila melanogaster as reference system, the major morphogenetic events (blastoderm, gastrulation, germ band extension, germ band retraction, dorsal closure) were identified. The kinetics of early events is proportionally similar in both systems, but late movements (from germ band retraction...

The Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) albitarsis complex includes six species: An. albitarsis, Anopheles oryzalimnetes Wilkerson and Motoki, n. sp., Anopheles marajoara, Anopheles deaneorum, Anopheles janconnae Wilkerson and Sallum, n. sp. and An. albitarsis F. Except for An. deaneorum, species of the complex are indistinguishable when only using morphology. The problematic distinction among species of...

Anopheles subgenus Nyssorhynchus is a monophyletic Neotropical group (Sallum et al. 2000, 2002) that currently contains 32 named species (Harbach 2004). The most important vectors of human malaria parasites in Central and South America are members of the subgenus and include An. darlingi Root, 1926, An. albimanus Wiedemann, 1820 and An. marajoara Galvão & Damasceno, 1942 (Conn et al. 2002).
