RESUMO

RESUMEN Con el objetivo del estudio fue determinar la coexistencia y fuentes de alimentación de mosquitos adultos (Diptera: Culicidae) en un centro de salud rural de Piura en Perú, se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal. Se usaron técnicas entomológicas para capturar e identificar mosquitos, y técnicas de biotecnología molecular para identificar las fuentes de alimentación. Un total de 793 ejemplares de los géneros Culex y Aedes se encontraron coexistiendo, 789 (99,5%) corresponden a Culex quinquefasciatus, 607 (76,9%) fueron machos y 182 (23,1%) hembras. Así mismo, 4 (100%) corresponden a Aedes aegypti hembras. Las fuentes de alimentación de Aedes aegypti fueron Homo sapiens sapiens, y de Culex quinquefasciatus fueron Homo sapiens sapiens y Canis familiaris. Este estudio proporciona evidencia de que los centros de salud rurales estarían actuando como focos de arbovirosis, existiendo el riesgo de que personas que acuden por distintas dolencias, puedan contraer enfermedades transmitidas por C. quinquefasciatus y A. aegypti.


ABSTRACT This study aimed to determine the coexistence and food sources of adult mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in a rural health center in Piura, Peru by using a descriptive cross-sectional design. Entomological techniques were used to capture and identify mosquitoes, and molecular biotechnology techniques were used to identify food sources. A total of 793 specimens of the Culex and Aedes genera were found coexisting, 789 (99.5%) were Culex quinquefasciatus, 607 (76.9%) were males and 182 (23.1%) were females. Likewise, 4 (100%) corresponded to Aedes aegypti females. The food sources of Aedes aegypti were Homo sapiens sapiens, and Homo sapiens sapiens and Canis familiaris were the food sources of Culex quinquefasciatus. This study provides evidence that rural health centers could be acting as foci of arbovirosis, with the risk that people who come for different ailments could contract diseases transmitted by C. quinquefasciatus and A. aegypti.
