“…This data could be particularly interesting as the human outbreak of SLEV occurred in 2005 in Córdoba province, Argentina (Spinsanti et al 2008). Recent SLEV circulation has also been reported in Brazil in birds, human and nonhuman primates on different regions of the country (Rocco et al 2005, Santos et al 2006, Mondini et al 2007, Cruz et al 2009). The seropositivity for SLEV in five animals with history of travel to Poconé, a municipality of Mato Grosso (MT), indicates possible infection outside of MS, which should be taken into account by arbovirus surveillance in MT.…”

“…In 2006, the fi rst outbreak of SLEV in Brazil was reported. Concomitant with a DENV-3 outbreak in the City of Sao José do Rio Preto, the SLEV genome was detected in clinical samples from 12 patients (22) . ROCV caused a human epidemic of severe encephalitis that lasted from 1973 to 1980 in the Ribeira Valley, at the southeastern coast of Brazil.…”

RESUMO ABSTRACT Introduction:The objectives for this study were to measure the diversity of Culicidae species, describe their abundance and seasonal variation in São José do Rio Preto, SP, and discuss the risk of arbovirus infections. Methods: The collection of larval and adult mosquitoes was conducted monthly from 2006 to 2007 in an urban area and four sections of forested land. In the urban area, larvae were collected from sites where oviposition by Culex mosquitoes was most likely to occur. At two of the four sites in the forested land, adult mosquitoes were collected with the use of CDC traps at night, and a Nasci aspirator was used in the daytime at the two other collection sites. Results: In the urban area, 34 Culicidae species were identified out of a total sample of 8,683 specimens; of these specimens, 80.7% were Culex quinquefasciatus, 9.6% were Culex coronator, 3.2% were Aedes albopictus, and 1.1% were Ochlerotatus fluviatilis. The abundance of Cx. quinquefasciatus larvae was negatively related to rainfal. In the woods, 2,268 mosquitoes were collected, representing 10 genera and 46 species. The most abundant mosquito species were Aedeomyia squamipennis, Culex coronator, Culex (Mel.) Melanoconion section, Culex declarator, Ochlerotatus scapularis, Anopheles triannulatus, Culex bidens/interfor and Culex habilitator/pseudojhantinosoma. Conclusions: The abundance of Cx. quinquefasciatus in the urban area and the presence of other Culicidae species in urban areas and forested land point to the possibility of the transmission of West Nile virus and other arbovirus infections in São José do Rio Preto and other cities. Thus, the enacting of measures aimed at the surveillance of these arbovirus infections is essential.
