ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal, desde agosto hasta octubre de 2009, con vistas a informar el hallazgo de Aedes albopictus en la región metropolitana de Honduras. Las muestras colectadas se llevaron al laboratorio de entomología, donde se clasificaron desde el punto de vista de la taxonomía. Se encontró asociación de esta especie con larvas de Aedes aegypti y Toxorhynchites sp. Las larvas del género Aedes fueron colocadas en bandejas blancas, luego introducidas en jaulas, a fin de obtener los adultos y corroborar el diagnóstico. Los adultos emergidos fueron clasificados de la misma forma, lo cual confirmó la presencia de Aedes albopictus en la mencionada área. Por la importancia de esta especie, se expone sobre la biología y las características principales de este vector.


A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out from August to October 2009 in order to report the finding of Aedes albopictus in the metropolitan region of Honduras. The collected samples were taken to the entomology laboratory, where they were classified from the taxonomic point of view. There was association of this species with larvas of Aedes aegypti and Toxorhynchites sp. The larvae of the gender Aedes were placed in white trays, then they were introduced in cages, in order to obtain the adults and to corroborate the diagnosis. The obtained adults were classified in the same way, which confirmed the presence of Aedes albopictus in the mentioned area. Due to the importance of this species, it is exposed in biology with the main characteristics of this vector.
