MARQUETTI, María del Carmen; GONZALEZ, Diana; AGUILERA, Lucita y NAVARRO, Agustín. Índices ecológicos en el sistema de vigilancia de Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) en Cuba. Rev Cubana Med Trop [online]. 1999, vol.51, n.2, pp. 79-82. ISSN 1561-3054.
The ecological indexes called diversity (H') and equitability (J') of the mosquito species were determined in six of the most common reservoirs of the urban ecosystem in the Plaza de la Revolución municipality, City of Havana. Data analysis showed that according to the values of these indexes, the most dangerous reservoirs were tyres, larvitraps and artificial reservoirs in general. Reference is also made on the use of larvitraps in the surveillance system of Aedes aegypti and the detection and stabilization of mosquitoes such as Aedes mediovittatus and Culex migripalpus in the urban ecosystem. The variety of species ranged from 2 to 7 in the studied reservoirs which showed differences in the patterns of use of the resources in the urban ecosystem.
