Descripción
Mosquitoes (Diptera, Culicidae) are a very diverse taxonomic group, which mainly inhabits tropical-subtropical zones, with many species of public health significance considered vectors of different pathogens, such as the yellow fever virus (YFV) (Flavivirus, Flaviviridae). Our aim is to know the diversity of mosquito species in the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest and determine the presence of vector of YFV. The study was carried out in April and November 2021 in three Provincial Parks: Piñalito, Cruce Caballero and Moconá. We used CDC-light traps and net/manual aspirator as collection techniques. Overall, across the three sites we collected 536 female adult mosquitoes and identified 13 genera and 33 species. Considering all study sites, we obtained a high Margalef diversity index (DMG=5.8). Considering all study sites together, the species with the highest relative abundance (RA) were Haemagogus leucocelaenus (Dyar and Shannon) (RA=15.3%, N=37) and Psorophora ferox (von Humboldt) (RA=16.1%, N=39). In relation to species involved in the sylvatic YF cycle, we collected Hg. leucocelaenus (a main vectors) in the three study areas and nine other species considered potential vectors (7 species in Piñalito, 5 in Cruce Caballero and 2 in Moconá). Although all of the species we found have been previously reported in Misiones, none had been documented in the studied areas; so, we expanded the distribution of all of them. We found a high diversity of species reported for Misiones (33 of 194 species), which could be related to the variety of habitats present in this portion of the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest. In addition, many of these species are of sanitary importance, which makes these areas of special interest for developing plans to monitor insects and their associated viruses.
Los mosquitos (Diptera, Culicidae) son un grupo muy diverso que habita sobre todo zonas tropicales y subtropicales, con muchas especies de interés para la salud pública consideradas vectores de diferentes patógenos, como el virus de la fiebre amarilla (YFV) (Flavivirus, Flaviviridae). Nos propusimos conocer la diversidad de especies de mosquitos del Bosque Atlántico del Alto Paraná y determinar la presencia de especies vectores del YFV. El estudio se realizó en abril y noviembre 2021 en tres parques provinciales: Piñalito, Cruce Caballero y Moconá. Utilizamos trampas de luz tipo CDC y red/ aspiradores manuales como técnicas de captura. Colectamos 536 mosquitos adultos hembras a partir de los cuales identificamos 13 géneros y 33 especies. Considerando los tres sitios en conjunto obtuvimos un alto índice de diversidad de Margalef (DMG=5.8). Considerando los tres sitios juntos, las especies con mayor abundancia relativa (AR) fueron Haemagogus leucocelaenus (Dyar y Shannon) (AR=15.3%, N=37) y Psorophora ferox (von Humboldt) (AR=16.1%, N=39). En relación con las especies involucradas en el ciclo del YFV, colectamos Hg. leucocelaenus (un vector principal) en los tres sitios y otras nueve especies consideradas potenciales vectores (7 especies en Piñalito, 5 en C. Caballero y 2 en Moconá). Todas las especies encontradas fueron reportadas para Misiones, pero no hay registros de ellas en las áreas estudiadas, por lo que ampliamos la distribución de todas ellas. Encontramos una diversidad alta de las especies reportadas para Misiones (33 de 194 especies), lo que podría deberse a la gran variedad de hábitats presentes en esta porción del Bosque Atlántico del Alto Paraná. Además, muchas son de importancia sanitaria, lo que hace de estas áreas sitios de interés para el desarrollo de planes de monitoreo entomo-virológico.
