Abstract

A Coleção de Entomologia Pe. J. S. Moure (DZUP), iniciada em 1956, do Departamento de Zoologia da Universidade Federal do Paraná abriga cerca de 5 milhões de exemplares de insetos e cerca de 3.000 exemplares-tipo. A coleção de Diptera está representada por aproximadamente 2 milhões de exemplares fixados em álcool ou a seco em mantas, alfinetados ou em lâminas, cerca de 40% identificados ao nível genérico ou específico. As famílias mais representativas são Muscidae, Culicidae e Syrphidae. Apesar da coleção encontrar-se melhor representada pela dipterofauna do Paraná, possui razoável número de exemplares da Bahia,

First records of the occurrence of twelve species of Sabethini (Diptera, Culicidae) in the state of Paraná, southern Brazil

“…Knowledge of the distribution of Sabethini in the Americas was obtained from Navarro et al (2015), and the Walter Reed Biosystematics Unit (2017) online catalog. To check the originality of the species records in southern Brazil and Paraná, we consulted Lane and Cerqueira (1942), and the lists of entomological collections presented by Marchon-Silva et al (1996), Hutchings et al (2005), and Tissot and Navarro-Silva (2008). In addition, the lists compiled by Cardoso et al (2005Cardoso et al ( , 2010 for Rio Grande do Sul and Müller et al (2008) for Paraná and Santa Catarina were also consulted.…”

“…The distribution of mosquito species is presented based on the main natural characteristics of Paraná, according to the Maack (1981) and Wons (1985). The review of articles published after the lists mentioned above include: for Rio Grande do Sul: Gomes et al (2010); for Paraná: Anjos and Navarro-Silva (2008), Bona and Navarro-Silva (2008), Tissot and Navarro-Silva (2008), Marchi et al (2010), Müller et al (2012), Guedes and Navarro-Silva (2014) and Lopes et al (2014); and for Santa Catarina: Gomes et al (2009), Reis et al (2010), Favretto et al (2013), Müller et al (2014), Santos et al (2014) and Ferreira- de-Freitas et al (2016).…”

“…Studies on the fauna of mosquitoes in regions of Paraná that have remaining forests have demonstrated the existence of populations of Sabethini (Bona and Navarro-Silva 2008, Tissot and Navarro-Silva 2008, Muller at al. 2008, 2012, Guedes and Navarro-Silva 2014.…”
