The order Diptera is constituted of insects that possess numerous varieties of habitats, these winged, commonly called mosquitoes, comprise a monophyletic group. Malaria transmitters in Brazil are represented by mosquitoes of the Anopheles genus, being it principal vector species Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) darlingi Root. Collectings were accomplished in the rural area of Cuiabá in the region of Coxipó do Ouro/MT, and a total 4,773 adult mosquitoes of the genus Anopheles were obtained. The prevailing species in the collectings where An. (Nys.) darlingi with 3,905 (81.8%), considered the vector of major epidemiological expression in the region, followed by Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) argyritarsis (Robineau-Desvoidy) 267 (5.6%) and Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) triannulatus (Neiva & Pinto) 226 (4.7%). This report might be useful to entomological surveillance, demonstrating that the Coxipó do Ouro/MT locality might be elected as an area to be monitored, once the presence of such vector in this type of environment indicates a potential malaria transmission risk for the neighbouring regions in the state of Mato Grosso.

“…in Brazil (ColluCCi & Sallum 2006). The species is common in Latin America, with a broad distribution from southern Mexico to southern Brazil (Forattini 2002;ColluCCi & Sallum 2006). This is a vector that is markedly anthropophilic (i.e., has a preference for feeding on human blood), and is regularly found within human households and in peridomestic environments (ConSoli & lourenço-de-oliveira 1994;Forattini 2002).…”

Abstract. Three specimens of Anopheles darlingi Root were found in the Volta Grande environmental reserve, an area influenced by the Rio Grande dam constructed by the Volta Grande hydroelectric plant in Conceição das Alagoas, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The mosquito An. darlingi is one of the main vectors of human malaria in Brazil due to feeding preference for human blood, a factor that is accentuated by endophilic behavior. The information recorded here may be helpful to local entomological surveillance toward monitoring impacts generated by hydroelectric reservoir formation, as the presence of this vector in this type of environment indicates a potential risk for malaria transmission.Keywords: Hydropower; Malaria; Monitoring; Mosquitoes; Vectors. Primeiro registro de Anopheles darlingi Root (Diptera, Culicidae) na Região do Reservatório de Volta Grande, Conceição das Alagoas, Minas Gerais, BrasilResumo. Três espécimes de Anopheles darlingi Root foram encontrados na reserva ambiental Volta Grande, na área de influência da barragem do Rio Grande construída pela usina hidrelétrica de Volta Grande, em Conceição das Alagoas, Minas Gerais, Brasil. O mosquito An. darlingi é um dos principais vetores da malária humana no Brasil, devido à sua preferência alimentar por sangue humano, um fator que é acentuado pelo comportamento endofílico da espécie. O presente relato poderá ser útil à vigilância entomológica local para monitoramento dos impactos gerados pela formação do reservatório hidrelétrico, uma vez que a presença deste vetor neste tipo de ambiente indica um risco potencial de transmissão da malária.

“…Diversos autores, entretanto, registram encontro de larvas em recipientes artificiais. [1][2][3] Tais registros são incomuns. Nas Américas, os anofelinos não têm adotado esses recipientes como criadouros para o desenvolvimento dos imaturos.…”

“…Tal interpretação é favorecida pelo fato de a maioria das larvas terem sido coletadas entre abril e setembro, meses de estiagem, na região que apresenta o menor nível pluviométrico do Estado. 5 Ao comparar esses registros com os anteriores, [1][2][3] o ponto comum observado entre eles foi a presença de A. argyritarsis, o que parece demonstrar seu ecletismo quanto aos criadouros. A presença de caixas d'água destampadas, bem como o descarte de recipientes artificiais, disponibiliza maior número de potenciais criadouros para as fêmeas dos anofelinos, favorecendo o contato entre homem e vetor.…”
