Urbanization as a driver for temporal wing-shape variation in Anopheles cruzii (Diptera: Culicidae)

Acta Tropica, 2019
Anopheles cruzii is the main vector of human and simian malaria in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. This biome, which is an important hotspot of malaria transmission, has suffered fragmentation and deforestation as a result of urban expansion. Fragmentation and deforestation occur continually in the south of the city of São Paulo, Brazil, and findings of

Chromosomal evidence for sibling species of the malaria vector Anopheles cruzii

Genome, 2000
An analysis of the ovarian polytene chromosomes of Anopheles cruzii from three localities in Southeast Brazil revealed the existence of two genetic entities within this morphologically uniform taxon. These cryptic species differed in the banding patterns of the X chromosome and 3L arm. A pattern of bands that cannot be explained by the fixation of any

Climate change impacts on Anopheles (K.) cruzii in urban areas of Atlantic Forest of Brazil: Challenges for malaria diseases

Acta Tropica, 2021
Around 27% of South Americans live in central and southern Brazil. Of 19,400 human malaria cases in Brazil in 2018, some were from the southern and southeastern states. High abundance of malaria vectors is generally positively associated with malaria incidence. Expanding geographic distributions of Anopheles vector mosquito species (e.g. A.

Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii infected by Plasmodium in the Atlantic Forest indicates that the malaria transmission cycle is maintained even after howler monkeys’ population decline

Parasitology Research, 2022
The Atlantic Forests outside of the Amazon region in Brazil are low-frequency malaria hotspots. The disease behaves as a zoonosis maintained by nonhuman primates (NHPs), especially howler monkeys. Between 2016 and 2018, Brazil witnessed the largest yellow fever outbreak since 1980, resulting in massive declines in these NHP populations.

Intraspecific Variation of Second Internal Transcribed Spacer of Nuclear Ribosomal DNA Among Populations of Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii (Diptera: Culicidae)

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2007
Anopheline species of the subgenus Kerteszia, including Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii Dyar & Knab (Diptera: Culicidae), are bromeliad-malaria vectors in the Atlantic rain forest of Brazil. Morphological, genetic, and molecular polymorphisms among different populations of An. cruzii have been reported, and it has been suggested that this taxon includes a

Chromosome differentiated populations of Anopheles cruzii: evidence for a third sibling species.

Genetica, 2001
Anopheles cruzii is the most common species of mosquito in Southeast Brazil and a vector of human and monkey malaria. The banding pattern of the ovarian polytene chromosomes and the frequencies of paracentric inversions of individuals from two populations were studied. A new sequence of bands on the sex chromosome, defined as form C, was disclosed.

Reproductive and Post‐Embryonic Daily Rhythm Patterns of the Malaria VectorAnopheles(Kerteszia)cruzii: Aspects of the Life Cycle

Chronobiology International, 2007
Females of Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii, a sporadic malaria vector in some areas of the Atlantic Forest in south and southeastern Brazil, were captured and studied under controlled conditions. In the laboratory, daily observations were conducted in natural light-dark cycles at 25.1+/-0.6 degrees C and relative humidity 57-81%.
