The culic?neos are incriminated as vectors of pathogens that cause diseases such as Dengue, Yellow Fever among others, and include about 3000 species in 11 tribes, consisting of 38 genera. The Tribe Aedini includes three genera that occur in Brazil: Aedes, Psorophora and Haemagogus. The genus Aedes is highly diverse, comprising more than 900 species currently distributed in 44 subgenera. Reinert (2000), based on morphological studies, divided the genus Aedes in two genera: Aedes and Ochlerotatus. In the present study we adopt the proposed by Reinert (2000). Were morphologically analyzed eggs of four species of the genus Ochlerotatus observed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The species Oc. albifasciatus, Oc. fluviatilis, Oc. scapularis and Oc taeniorhynchus showed some significant morphological differences comproved by morphometry and scanning electron microscopy. Oc albifasciatus presented chorionic cells with shapes resembling a wristwatch and a racket. This egg contains a continuous and prominent micropylar apparatus with 9.6 ?m thick and evident micropyle disc with approximately 20.3 ?m in diameter. The eggs had an elliptical outline with 615.7 ? 37.24 ?m in length and a width of 180.7 ? 22.87 ?m in its central region. Oc. fluviatilis showed chorionic cells of irregular shapes, observing that the tubercles of the ventral surface are larger, which may contribute to their adhesion to the substrate, it is not possible to visualize the micropyle in this species. These eggs had a black coloration with elliptical, 722.8 ? 39.5 ?m in length and width of 177.9 ? 9.78 ?m presenting a bottleneck at one of its ends. The ornamentation of chorionic cells consists of cells of irregular shapes, each containing 2.65 ? 0.41 ?m tubecles on the ventral surface, and measures 6.04 ? 0.60 on the dorsal surface. The egg of Oc scapularis has many similarities with Oc. albifasciatus in the dorsal and ventral surfaces. The micropylar apparatus with 11.1 ?m showed a necklace with a evident and discontinuous frame, and a micropilar disc also evident as Oc. albifasciatus measuring 1.41 ?m. Oc. scapularis showed black color, elliptical contour, measuring 620.4 ? 16.74 ?m in length and 163.7 ? 16.90 ?m in width, with a ratio (length / width) of 3.79 ?m. Oc taeniorhynchus showed chorionic cells with irregular shapes, ventral surface more convex than the dorsal, and the micropyle showing a complete and continuum collar. In the central part of the egg tubercles have larger diameters. These eggs have 607.1 ? 29.3 ?m in length and width of 213.7 ? 13.7 ?m. The micropyle measuring 1.4 ? 0.31 ?m is surrounded by a micropilar disk (5.2 ? 1.37 ?m) and a complete micropylar collar (5.4 ? 0.99 ?m) Culic?deos s?o insetos pertencentes ? ordem Diptera, Subordem Nematocera, fam?lia Culicidae, distribu?dos em duas subfam?lias, Anophelinae e Culicinae. Os culic?neos s?o incriminados como vetores de pat?genos causadores de doen?as como Dengue, Febre Amarela dentre outras, e abrangem cerca de 3000 esp?cies, distribu?das em 11 tribos, constitu?das por 38 g?neros. A Tribo Aedini inclui tr?s g?neros que ocorrem no Brasil: Aedes, Psorophora e Haemagogus. O g?nero Aedes apresenta uma grande diversidade, compreendendo mais de 900 esp?cies atualmente distribu?das por 44 subg?neros. Reinert (2000), com base em estudos morfol?gicos, dividiu o g?nero Aedes em dois g?neros: Aedes e Ochlerotatus. No presente estudo adotamos a proposta de Reinert (2000). Foram analisados morfologicamente os ovos de quatro esp?cies do g?nero Ochlerotatus observadas ao Microsc?pio Eletr?nico de Varredura (MEV). As esp?cies Oc. albifasciatus, Oc. fluviatilis, Oc. scapularis e Oc taeniorhynchus apresentaram algumas diferen?as morfol?gicas bem significativas comprovadas atrav?s da morfometria e da microscopia eletr?nica de varredura. Oc albifasciatus apresentou c?lulas cori?nicas com formatos assemelhando a um rel?gio de pulso e uma raquete. Este ovo cont?m um aparelho micropilar cont?nuo e proeminente com cerca de 9,6?m de espessura e disco da micr?pila bem evidente com cerca de 20,3 ?m de di?metro. Os ovos apresentaram um contorno el?ptico com aproximadamente cerca de 615,7 ? 37,24 ?m de comprimento e uma largura de 180,7 ? 22,87 ?m na sua regi?o central. Oc. fluviatilis apresentou c?lulas cori?nicas de formas irregulares, observando-se que os tub?rculos da superf?cie ventral s?o maiores, o que pode contribuir para sua ades?o ao substrato, n?o sendo poss?vel visualizar a micr?pila nesta esp?cie. Estes ovos apresentaram uma colora??o negra com formato el?ptico, 722,8 ? 39,5?m de comprimento e largura de 177,9 ? 9,78?m, apresentando um afunilamento em uma de suas extremidades. A ornamenta??o das c?lulas cori?nicas consiste em c?lulas de formas irregulares, cada uma contendo 2,65 ? 0,41?m tub?rculos na superf?cie ventral, e com medidas de 6,04 ? 0,60 na superf?cie dorsal. O ovo de Oc scapularis possui muitas semelhan?as com Oc. albifasciatus nas superf?cies dorsal e ventral. O aparelho micropilar com 11,1 ?m, mostrou um colar com uma moldagem evidente e n?o cont?nuo, e um disco micropilar tamb?m evidente como o de Oc. albifasciatus medindo 1,41 ?m. Oc. scapularis apresentaram a colora??o negra, contorno el?ptico medindo 620,4 ? 16,74 ?m de comprimento e 163,7 ? 16,90 ?m de largura, com um ?ndice (comprimento / largura) de 3,79?m. Oc taeniorhynchus apresentou c?lulas cori?nicas de formas irregulares, superf?cie ventral mais convexa que a dorsal, e a micr?pila possui um colar cont?nuo completo. Na parte central do ovo os tub?rculos tem di?metros maiores. Estes ovos apresentam 607,1 ? 29,3 ?m de comprimento e largura de 213,7 ? 13,7 ?. A micr?pila medindo 1,4 ? 0,31 ?m est? rodeada por um disco micropilar (5,2 ? 1,37 ?m) e por um colar micropilar completo (5,4 ? 0,99 ?m).

These species are often found in domiciles in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Comparisons were made between the three species by morphology using the technique of optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. We illustrate the morphostructural differences adults in scutellar region and only one species showed heart-shaped median depression, T. circummaculata. T. carcavalloi and T. rubrovaria presented in the form of W. It was also observed concentration of sensilla on the surfaces of the scutellum of these three species. In analyzes of the cephalic region, the stridulatory sulcus is "U" shaped in T. circummaculata and "V" shaped in T. carcavalloi and T. rubrovaria, the buccula T. carcavalloi and T. rubrovaria presented in the form of "U" and T. circummaculata "V" shaped. The rostrum of T. carcavalloi, T. circummaculata and T. rubrovaria presented in apex two lateral rifts 1+1. Were analyzed and shown significant differences in the length, width and diameter of the body and operculum of the eggs of T. rubrovaria, T. carcavalloi and T. circummaculata. In the morphological analysis of antennas T. carcavalloi it was verified the occurence in both sexes more than 14 trichobotrium, in the thrird and fourth antennal articles. T. carcavalloi presented on head 1+1 post-ocelares spots. In the legs, a pair of subapical denticles in femures of male and female was found. Spongy fossette were found only in the males, in the t?bias of the anterior and medium legs. The results of morphological T. carcavalloi showed that some structures are important for the specific characterization, such: antennas, spongy fossette and subapical denticles. Morphological studies placed T. carcavalloi in "complex infestans" and "subcomplex rubrovaria" as well as T. rubrovaria, while T. circummaculata was placed in the "complex circummaculata". The phylogeny of the group consists of 16 species of triatomines was reassessed with the inclusion of T. carcavalloi by Bayesian analysis of mtDNA sequences of subunits 12S and 16S ribosomal RNA, and cytochrome oxidase I gene (COI). The phenotypic relationship between T. carcavalloi related triatomines was also inferred from morphometry. Phylogenetic results indicate that T. carcavalloi is a sister species to T. rubrovaria, and both were relocated in close relationship with T. circummaculata. Morphometrics studies confirmed the proximity of T. carcavalloi, T. rubrovaria and T. circummaculata, placing the latter species the "complex infestans" and "subcomplex rubrovaria". Regarding biological parameter, the average incubation period of the eggs in T. carcavalloi was 22.7 days. The highest number of eggs/female/week was observed during the hottest months. The first meal took place at 3.13 days after hatching. The intermoulting period N1-N2 was on average 18.52 days, N2-N3 62.77, N3-N4 86.93, N4-N5 119.05 and N5?adult 193.43. The average of feedings during the nymphal development was 13.4. Resistance to fasting in all nymph and adult (males and females) stages indicated that nymphs of 3rd, 4th and 5th stages presented higher resistance than adults, and in this case males were less resistant than females. The highest mortality rate was registered in N3 (22.2%). The average adult survival was 25.6 weeks. The total life cycle was highly long with average of 503.4 days. This is the first report on the biology of T. carcavalloi fed mice. This study enable expand the bionomic knowledge of this species, besides contribute to better maintenance colony and thus understand the possible participation in the transmission of T. cruzi. Nesta tese foram estudadas tr?s esp?cies do ?subcomplexo rubrovaria?: T. carcavalloi, T. circummaculata e T. rubrovaria que possuem h?bitos silvestres, mas com potencialidades na transmiss?o da doen?a de Chagas. Estas esp?cies s?o encontradas com frequ?ncia em domic?lios do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Foram feitas compara??es entre as tr?s esp?cies atrav?s da morfologia usando a t?cnica da microscopia ?tica e eletr?nica de varredura. Foram ilustradas as diferen?as morfoestruturais dos adultos na regi?o escutelar e apenas uma esp?cie apresentou a forma codiforme na depress?o mediana, T. circummaculata. J? T. carcavalloi e T. rubrovaria apresentaram a forma de W. Foi tamb?m observada a concentra??o de sensilas nas superf?cies do escutelo das tr?s esp?cies. Nas an?lises da regi?o cef?lica, o sulco estridulat?rio ? em forma de ?U? em T. circummaculata e em forma de "V" em T. carcavalloi e T. rubrovaria, as b?culas de T. carcavalloi e T. rubrovaria apresentaram a forma de ?U? e T. circummaculata de ?V?. J? o rostro de T. carcavalloi, T. circummaculata e T. rubrovaria apresentaram duas fendas laterais 1+1 no ?pice. Foram analisadas e evidenciadas diferen?as significativas no comprimento, largura e di?metro do corpo e do op?rculo dos ovos de T. rubrovaria, T. carcavalloi e T. circummaculata. Na an?lise morfol?gica das antenas de T. carcavalloi verificou a ocorr?ncia tanto em machos quanto em f?meas de mais de 14 tricob?trias, no terceiro e quarto art?culos antenais. T. carcavalloi apresentou na cabe?a 1+1 manchas p?s-ocelares. Nos f?mures das patas de ambos os sexos foi encontrado um par de dent?culos subapicais. As fossetas esponjosas foram encontradas somente nos machos, nas t?bias das patas anteriores e medianas. Os resultados morfol?gicos de T. carcavalloi evidenciaram que algumas estruturas s?o importantes para a caracteriza??o espec?fica, como: antenas, dent?culos subapicais e fossetas esponjosas. Estudos morfol?gicos colocaram T. carcavalloi no ?complexo infestans? e no ?subcomplexo rubrovaria? assim como T. rubrovaria, enquanto T. circummaculata foi colocado no ?complexo circummaculata". A filogenia do grupo composto de 16 esp?cies de triatom?neos foi reavaliado com a inclus?o de T. carcavalloi por an?lise Bayesiana utilizando sequ?ncias de mtDNA de subunidades 12S e 16S do RNA ribossomal, e genes do citocromo oxidase I (COI). A rela??o fenot?pica entre T. carcavalloi e triatom?neos afins tamb?m foi inferida a partir da morfometria. Resultados filogen?ticos indicaram que T. carcavalloi ? uma esp?cie irm? de T. rubrovaria, e ambos foram recolocados em estreita rela??o com T. circummaculata. Estudos morfom?tricos confirmaram a proximidade entre T. carcavalloi, T. rubrovaria e T. circummaculata, colocando a ?ltima esp?cie no ?complexo infestans? e no ?subcomplexo rubrovaria?. Em rela??o ao par?metro biol?gico, o per?odo m?dio de incuba??o dos ovos em T. carcavalloi foi de 22,7 dias. O maior n?mero de ovos / f?mea / semana foi observado durante os meses mais quentes e os ovos que n?o eclodiram eram f?rteis. O primeiro dia de repasto sangu?neo foi de 3,13 dias ap?s a eclos?o, em m?dia. O per?odo de intermuda N1-N2 foi em m?dia de 18,52 dias; N2-N3 foi 62,77 dias; N3-N4 foi 86,93 dias; N4-N5 foi 119,05 dias e N5-adulto foi 193,43 dias. A m?dia geral de alimenta??es durante todo o desenvolvimento ninfal foi de 13,4. Os resultados logrados para resist?ncia ao jejum indicaram que as ninfas de 3, 4 e 5 est?gios apresentam maior resist?ncia do que os adultos, e neste caso os machos foram menos resistente do que as f?meas. A taxa de mortalidade mais alta foi registrada em N3 (22,2%). A sobreviv?ncia m?dia foi de 25,6 semanas para os adultos. O ciclo de vida total foi longo, com m?dia de 503,4 dias. Este foi o primeiro relato sobre a biologia de T. carcavalloi alimentados com camundongos. Esse estudo possibilitou ampliar o conhecimento bion?mico desta esp?cie, al?m de contribuir para melhor mantuten??o de col?nias e dessa forma entender a poss?vel participa??o na transmiss?o do T. cruzi.

In this study, an isolate was obtained by feces culturing of the intestinal tract of Megaselia scalaris Loew, 1866 (Diptera, Phoridae). The original isolate and its clones (obtained by flow cytometry) were deposited in the ?Trypanosomatids Collection of the Instituto Oswaldo Cruz. These clones were characterized by different approaches I in comparison with the reference species of different genera. Its growth has been studied in LIT medium (with 10 or 20% fetal bovine serum) modified according to the requirement. The number of cells per microliter was estimated at 24 h intervals between 48-144 h. Giemsa-stained smears (after acid hydrolysis) were prepared in order to study cell differentiation and morphology of the forms. The isozyme analysis was performed using the following systems: GPI, PGM, 6PGDH, ME, IDH, MDH, ACON, FUM, MPI and HK. Data from this analysis were processed and analyzed numerically using the computacional Jaccard coefficient and UPGMA algorighm. The result set of this study suggest that: (1) The strain of M. scalaris showed 70% similarity with Herpetomonas megaseliae, (2) This isolate showed the exclusive presence of promastigotes in any analysis of the growth curve as expected for the genus Leptomonas, however the forms exhibited high polymorphism. Additional studies using molecular tools will be realized A fam?lia Trypanosomatidae inclui parasitas de uma grande variedade de vertebrados, invertebrados (principalmente insetos), plantas e algumas esp?cies de protozo?rios. No presente trabalho, um isolado foi obtido por coprocultivo de trato intestinal de Megaselia scalaris Loew, 1866 (Diptera, Phoridae). O isolado original e seus clones (obtidos por citometria de fluxo) foram depositados na "Cole??o de Tripanosomat?deos do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz". Estes clones foram caracterizados por diversas abordagens em compara??o com esp?cies de refer?ncia de diferentes g?neros. Seu crescimento foi estudado em meio LIT (com 10 ou 20% de soro fetal bovino) modificado, de acordo com o n?vel de exig?ncia. O n?mero de c?lulas por microlitro foi estimado em intervalos de 24 h, entre 48-144 h. Esfrega?os corados pelo Giemsa (ap?s hidr?lise ?cida) foram preparados visando estudos de diferencia??o celular e morfometria das formas encontradas. A an?lise de isoenzimas foi realizada utilizando-se os seguintes sistemas: GPI , PGM, 6PGDH, ME, IDH, MDH, ACON, FUM, MPI e HK. Os dados desta an?lise foram processados numericamente e submetidos ? an?lise computacional utilizando-se o coeficiente de Jaccard e o algoritmo UPGMA. O conjunto de resultados deste trabalho sugere que: (1) O isolado de M. scalaris apresentou similaridade de 70% com Herptomonas megaseliae; (2) Esse isolado revelou a presen?a exclusiva de promastigotas em toda an?lise da curva de crescimento, como esperado para o g?nero Leptomonas, entretanto as formas exibiram grande polimorfismo. Estudos complementares utilizando ferramentas moleculares ser?o realizados.

Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, presents a considerable heterogeneity among populations of isolates within the sylvatic cycle and domestic. The aim of this study is to assess the genetic diversity of thirteen isolated from specimens of Triatoma vitticeps were collected from the locality of Triunfo, 2nd District of Santa Maria Madalena (RJ) and one isolated from the town of Vista Alegre, the municipality of Conception Macabu (RJ). Using the PCR-based mini-exon genes using primers TcI, TcII, Z3, Tr and ME, the 14 isolates showed a profile of bands with 150 bp characteristic of zymodeme III and bands with a lower intensity with ~ 250bp characteristic of TcII, suggesting the possible presence of mixed populations of these isolates. PCR amplification of ribosomal RNA gene (24S?) using primers D71 and D72 resulted in fragments of 125bp TcII characteristics of strain for all isolates studied. Clone F30 was used as a marker for characterization of T. cruzi I and T. cruzi II, using primers F30 F and F30 R using a simple protocol involving amplification, digestion and agarose gel analysis, showing by enzyme digestion with RsaI and MspI pattern more characteristic to the profile TcII and or Z3. The sample SMM1 not amplified fragments for clone F30. To check possible hybrids between the strains analyzed was made based on PCR analysis of polymorphisms in the MSH2 gene, using primers tmuts 30 and tmuts 41. The products of digestion with restriction enzyme HhaI (Haemophilus haemolyticus), resulted in fragments of 173bp, 207bp and 294bp for each isolate, indicating a typical pattern for strain TcII, then demonstrating that there is no hybrid between our isolates . These results show the diversity of parasites that infect specimens of T. vitticeps, emphasizing the habit of wild species and the complex epidemiology of the studied region that gives possible mixed populations. Our results corroborate with other descriptions of the literature and contribute to the knowledge and records of some additional profiles of wild strains of T. cruzi in areas not yet affected by this disease. Trypanosoma cruzi o agente etiol?gico da doen?a de Chagas, apresenta uma consider?vel heterogeneidade entre as popula??es de isolados dentro do ciclo silvestre e dom?stico. O alvo deste estudo ? avaliar a diversidade gen?tica de treze isolados de esp?cimes de Triatoma vitticeps que foram coletados da localidade de Triunfo, 2? Distrito do Munic?pio de Santa Maria Madalena (RJ) e um isolado da localidade de Vista Alegre, Munic?pio de Concei??o de Macabu (RJ). Com o uso do PCR baseado nos genes de mini-exon atrav?s dos iniciadores TcI, TcII, Z3, Tr e ME, os 14 isolados apresentaram um perfil de bandas com 150 pb caracter?stica de zimodema III e bandas com uma menor intensidade com ~ 250pb caracter?stica de TcII, sugerindo a presen?a de poss?veis popula??es mistas nesses isolados. A amplifica??o por PCR do gene do RNA ribossomal (24S?) atrav?s dos iniciadores D71 e D72 resultou em fragmentos de 125pb caracter?sticas da linhagem TcII para todos os isolados estudados. O clone F30 foi utilizado como um marcador de caracteriza??o de T. cruzi I e T. cruzi II, atrav?s dos iniciadores F30 F e F30 R utilizando um protocolo simples que envolve amplifica??o, digest?o e an?lise em gel de agarose, demonstrando atrav?s da digest?o com as enzimas RsaI e MspI um padr?o mais caracter?stico com o perfil TcII e/ou Z3. A amostra SMM1 n?o amplificou fragmentos para o clone F30. Para verificar poss?veis h?bridos entre as cepas analisadas foi feito PCR baseado em uma an?lise de polimorfismos no gene MSH2, utilizando-se os iniciadores tmuts 30 e tmuts 41. Os produtos de digest?o com a enzima de restri??o HhaI (Haemophilus haemolyticus), resultaram em fragmentos de 173pb, 207pb e 294pb para cada isolado, o que indica um padr?o caracter?stico para a linhagem Tc II, demonstrando ent?o, que n?o h? h?bridos entre nossos isolados. Estes resultados evidenciam a diversidade de parasitos que infectam esp?cimes de T. vitticeps, enfatizando o h?bito silvestre desta esp?cie e a complexidade epidemiol?gica da regi?o estudada que apresenta poss?veis popula??es mistas. Nossos resultados corroboram ainda, com outras descri??es da literatura e contribuem para o conhecimento e registros de alguns perfis adicionais de isolados silvestres de T. cruzi em regi?es ainda n?o afetadas por esta doen?a.
