Resumen:
Abstract:
Surveillance of the mosquito Aedes aegypti was carried out by the
Ministerio de Salud Pública in all urban centers of Uruguay, from February 1997 to
August 2010, as a strategy for dengue prevention. During this surveillance
program the occurrence of Chironomidae was also assessed. Chironomus
(Chironomus) calligraphus, was found to be sympatric with Ae. aegypti and
Culex quinquefasciatus in a wide variety of artificial water containers
in all sample locations within the 19 departments. This is the first record of C.
calligraphus from Uruguay.
