Pengendalian tempat perindukan nyamuk Ae. aegypti lebih banyak dititikberatkan pada penutupan dan abatisasi bak mandi serta penguburan barang-barang bekas di sekitar rumah penduduk yang berpeluang sebagai penampung air hujan, sementara penampung air lainnya belum mendapat perhatian yang lebih memadai, padahal peluang untuk dijadikan sebagai habitat Ae. aegypti cukup besar. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk menganalisis hubungan tempat perindukan dengan kepadatan larva dan membandingkan kepadatan populasi larva pada setiap tempat perindukan nyamuk Ae. aegypti. Jenis penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional dan analisa uji chi square yang dilaksanakan di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kalumata Kota Ternate. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa ada hubungan antara tempat perindukan nyamuk dengan kepadatan larva berdasarkan karakteristik jenis, warna, bahan, letak dan kondisi. Kesimpulannya yaitu terdapat hubungan antara tempat perindukan dengan kepadatan larva Ae.aegypti sebagai vektor penyakit demam berdarah dengue.Kata kunci: Identifikasi, tempat penampungan air, survey jentik.  AbstractDengue hemorrhagic fever is a disease caused by mosquitoes species Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus as primary vectors. Control of breeding sites for Ae mosquitoes. aegypti is more focused on the closure and abatement of bathtubs and the burial of used goods around people's homes that have the opportunity to collect rainwater, while other water reservoirs have not received more adequate attention, even though the opportunity to be used as Ae habitat. aegypti is quite large. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between breeding sites with larval density and compare larval population densities at each breeding site of the Ae mosquito. aegypti. Type of quantitative research method with cross sectional approach and analysis of chi square test conducted in the working area of Kalumata Health Center, Ternate City. The results showed that there was a relationship between mosquito breeding sites and larval density based on the characteristics of the species, color, material, location and condition. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between breeding sites and the density of Ae.aegypti larvae as a vector of dengue hemorrhagic fever.Keywords: Identification, water reservoir, larva survey.

Objectives: The elimination of key breeding sites of dengue vector is applied worldwide to control the vector density under the critical epidemic threshold. This study aimed to identify key breeding sites of Aedes mosquitos and associated factors in Huaylau village, Pakse city, Champasack province in Laos in 2019. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study, combining of immature stage survey of Aedes mosquitoes in all water and discarded containers and the community’s knowledge and practices on the prevention of dengue fever in all 240 households in Huaylau village. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to identify factors associated with the absence of Aedes larvae and pupae in the village. Statistical significance was set at a p-value less than 0.05. Results: Among the 720 water and discarded containers surveyed, the study found 654 Aedes larvae and pupae; of which 94.6% were immature Aedes aegypti. Key breeding sites of Aedes aegypti included water jars (34.2%), plastic drums (30.7%), tanks < 500 litter (14.7%), and discarded containers (12.6%), while that of all Aedes albopictus was discarded containers. The community’s better practices on the prevention of dengue fever contributed to the increased odds of the absence of Aedes larvae ad pupae by 1.612 (95%CI: 1.218-2.134, p<0.01), and the cleanliness of the house were associated with the increased odds of 4.072 of the absent Aedes larvae and pupae in the participated households (95%CI: 1.589-10.434, p<0.01). Conclusions: Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in the Huaylau village laid their eggs in various breeding sites, including water containers and discarded containers while discarded containers were the only key breeding site of Aedes albopictus. Better practices on dengue prevention and better hygiene conditions of the houses contributed to the absence of Aedes larvae and pupae. Special attention should be paid to the clearance of all discarded containers and education of the community people to cover water containers in the village.

Abstract Alocasia macrorrhizos (L.) G.Don grows and proliferates in shaded areas in several forest fragments in urban zones. The adult plant has axils that accumulate rain water (phytotelmata) and serve as breeding sites for several families of aquatic insects. The objective of this study was to determine the composition of the entomofauna associated with water accumulations in axils of A. macrorrhizos in urban areas of Manaus, Brazil. Individuals of A. macrorrhizos were sampled in five forest fragments, between April/2005 and March/2007 in urban areas of Manaus, totaling 184 sampling units. A manual suction hose was used for the removal of entomofauna. A total of 1,941 immatures of Diptera were collected representing the following families: Culicidae (96.5%), Chironomidae (2%), Psychodidae (0.7%), Ephydridae (0.7%) and Corethrellidae (0.1%). Five Culicidae species were identified: Wyeomyia melanocephala Dyar & Knab, 1906 (91.7%), Wy. ypsipola Dyar, 1922 (4.3%), Aedes albopictus (Skuse, 1894) (2.3%), Ae. aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) (1.5%) and Johnbelkinia longipes (Fabricius, 1805) (0.1%). The members of Culicidae were the most abundant, confirming the importance of this group in communities associated with phytotelmata, with a positive relation to the volume of water (p < 0.05). The occurrence of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus in axils of A. macrorrhizos demonstrates the potential of this Araceae as a breeding site of these medically important species. However, the real contribution of this Araceae in the maintenance and dispersion of populations of these two species of mosquitoes throughout the year should be further studied.
