Physiological age and longevity of Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii Dyar Knab (Diptera: Culicidae) in the Atlantic Forest of Southern Brazil [PDF]
Neotropical Entomology, 2010 We analyzed the reproductive status, ovarian development, daily survival rate, and length of the gonotrophic cycle in females of Anopheles ( Kerteszia ) cruzii Dyar & Knab, to determine how these factors influence the risk of malaria transmission in the coastal region of the state of Paraná, southern Brazil.

Aspectos atuais da distribuição geográfica de Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii Dyar & Knab, 1908 no estado do Espírito Santo, Brasil [PDF]
Entomología y Vectores, 2005 Anopheles cruzii was registered in Espírito Santo state both in 1957 and 1968. Our study provides additional evidence of its presence, including municipalities that were non mentioned before. Anopheles captures undertaken between 1998 and 2003 pointed out a distribution restricted to the forested outskirts of the mountains in the highland area of the ...

Phylogeny of Anopheles (Kerteszia) (Diptera: Culicidae) Using Mitochondrial Genes [PDF]
Insects, 2020 Identification of mosquito species is necessary for determining the entomological components of malaria transmission, but it can be difficult in morphologically similar species. DNA sequences are largely used as an additional tool for species recognition,

Identificação de Anopheles (Kerteszia) cruzii Dyar & Knab e Anopheles (Kerteszia) homunculus Komp (Diptera, Culicidae, Anophelinae) através de marcadores moleculares (RAPD e RFLP) [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Zoologia, 2005 Fêmeas adultas, larvas e pupas de A. cruzii Dyar & Knab, 1908 e A. homunculus Komp, 1937 são muito semelhantes morfologicamente, sendo difícil a identificação através dos caracteres taxonômicos tradicionais. Nesse estudo, RAPD e RFLP foram utilizados para facilitar a identificação dessas espécies.

Aspectos ecológicos de Anopheles cruzii e Culex ribeirensis (Diptera, Culicidae) da Mata Atlântica de Morretes, Paraná, Brasil [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Entomologia, 2008 A study of adult mosquitoes was performed from April 1995 to March 1996 in the Atlantic Forest near to Morretes city, Parana, Brazil. The research was carried out by using two CDC-M light traps installed in different vertical stratification levels. Mosquitoes were collected monthly throughout the year from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., with total work hours of 144.
