Abstract:
<strong>Background.</strong> In many tr opical countries, malaria remains a major health pr oblem. Effective control of in -house&nbsp;mosquitoes, due to entry prevention, takes advantage of the behavioural preferences of endophagy and endophily of&nbsp;mosquitoes. Insecticide-treated nets (ITN) adopt this, but is burdened with challenges, which result in dwindling adoption of&nbsp;the methodology in the tropics. An alternative is prevention of vector-human contact through house modifications, which&nbsp;adopts S/O channel/grip devices that form attachments to existing windows. Inverted S/O channel/grip frame (ISOWF) was&nbsp;therefore devised as an integrated window frame, which could be used for direct net attachment and housing shutters. The&nbsp;ISOWF is a lightweight material weighing 1/6 of the equivalent size of wood.&nbsp;<strong>Materials and methods.</strong> Appr opriate dies were employed to for m channels fr om thin ir on sheets in the prefer red&nbsp;shape and size of a laterally inverted letter &lsquo;S&rsquo; (ƨ). The upper half was minimised to form and facilitate the &lsquo;O&rsquo; griping of&nbsp;nets, while the remaining half was bloated to house window shutters. Net hoisting or de-hoisting periods were determined by&nbsp;timing. A room screened with a net was attached to the device and situated next to a mosquito breeding room. The room was&nbsp;charged with adequate carbon dioxide attractant for mosquitoes and protected with ISOWF screen. This was used to evaluate&nbsp;the effectiveness of the method. The time taken to hoist the net was measured. The frame was constructed like a metal/&nbsp;wooden frame, except that the anterior view had two steps.&nbsp;<strong>Results.</strong> The average time taken to hoist or de-hoist a net across a 60 cm x 120 cm window, formed by the frame, was&nbsp;5.96 and 1.68 minutes, respectively. The nets retained their integrity. Mixed mosquito populations numbering 1,341 in total&nbsp;could not gain access to a room with carbon dioxide attractant, and the ISOWF screen prevented passage.&nbsp;<strong>Conclusion.</strong> The ISOWF acts as a potential mosquito entry-prevention device, which further provides reinforcement to&nbsp;house screening. It forms an effective mosquito control device, which brands house screening as a sustainable environment&nbsp;for mosquito control, and subsequently, malaria control. This will also control the overall indoor densities of nuisance&nbsp;mosquitoes and other insect vectors.

Abstract:
In order to evaluate the trophic behavior of Aedes aegypti in the city of Cotonou, southern Benin, a cross-sectional study was conducted in urban and periurban neighborhoods from April 2016 to August 2017 to collect Ae. Aegypti populations. To achieve this goal, day and night collections, twice a month for one year were done where Ae. Aegypti populations were caught by Human Landing Catch and BG-Sentinel traps. 3,892 Aedes caught by different methods showed that Ae. Aegypti and Ae. circumluteolus are more abundant in urban than peri-urban areas (p&lt;0.05). The aggressive density of Ae. aegypti populations was significantly higher in urban areas (157.43 bites per man per hour) than in peri-urban areas (32.43 bites per man per hour) (p&lt;0.05). Also, out of 250 females blood-fed Ae. Aegypti tested by ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay) technique for blood meal identification, 86.80% took their blood meal on humans compared to 4.4% which took their blood meal on sheeps. These findings showed that the city of Cotonou in southern Benin, offered good condition for the development of Ae. aegypti population. The anthropology and endophagy behavior of this mosquito observed through the results of this study is a very favorable clue to vector control strategies based on the use of long-lasting impregnated mosquito nets and insecticide residual sprays adopted in Benin.

Abstract:
Populations of Anopheles (Kerteszia) were sampled fortnightly over a one-year period (August 1991 to July 1992) at Ribeira Valley, S. Paulo State, Brazil. Indoor and outdoor collections were made on human bait at evening crepuscular period. The Polovodova technique for age grading was applied to 3,501 females of Anopheles cruzii and to 416 females of An. bellator. That sample represented 34.4% of the total number of mosquitoes collected. The most abundant species found was An. cruzii. However, An. bellator showed an endophagy that was almost three times greater than that of An. cruzii. The overall parous rate was 25.4% and uniparity was practically dominant one. A proportion of 26.9% of An. cruzii and 12.0% of An. bellator were found to be uniparous. Only three outdoor females of the former species (0.1%) showed biparity. Parity of An. cruzii was higher in females caught outdoors than in those caught indoors. Nevertheless, 497 nulliparous females examined (417 cruzii and 80 bellator) had ovaries that had advanced to Christophers and Mer stages III to V. These results imply that these females had already practised hematophagy. Relating these results to those from the parous females, a high statistical significance was found, leading to the conclusion that gonothophic discordance is a common pattern among these anophelines. Further, these results obtained with human bait catches strongly suggest that nearly 38.0% of these host-seeking females had already taken at least one previous blood-meal. So it is possible that enough time could thus be available for the plasmodian development in the vectors.

Abstract:
Anthropogenic activity such as the establishment of Anopheles-infested rubber plantations can influence local malaria transmission dynamics to which the population dynamics and insecticide susceptibility of local Anopheles vectors are related. Using human landing catch collections at a house protected by indoor residual spraying (IRS), the periodic assessment of species composition, abundance, and blood-feeding behaviors was done in pre-IRS, during IRS, and post-IRS at 3, 6, and 12 months in a malaria-associated rubber plantation (MRP) ecotope of the Bo Rai district, Trat Province, Thailand, after malaria outbreak occurred. The study MRP ecotope elicited the population ratio (pi) of Anopheles vectors: An. campestris (0.747), An. dirus (0.168), An. minimus (0.037), An. barbirostris (0.027), and An. pseudowillmori (0.002), and of An. jamesii nonvector (0.019). Among these, two predominant An. campestris and An. dirus night-biters were then used in the susceptibility test against 0.05% deltamethrin (DEL) and 0.09% bifenthrin (BT) insecticides currently used in IRS. An. campestris, a suspected vector of Plasmodium vivax, had a tendency to appear throughout the study and behaved both exophagy and endophagy. It was highly susceptible to BT, showing 95.0% mortality (95% CI, 79.1–100) while decreasing sensitivity of 87.2% (95% CI, 78.4–95.9) to DEL. An. dirus, a primary vector of Plasmodium falciparum, had a tendency to feed outdoors rather than indoors. Significant differences in the abundance (mean density and human landing rate) were observed at pre-IRS (P&lt;0.001 and P=0.046), and similarly, during IRS (P=0.001 and P=0.037). It was highly susceptible to DEL and BT, showing 100% mortality rate. Evidently, the study MRP ecotope contributed receptive environment to favor the abundant local Anopheles vectors and their outdoor biting preference. This can pose the risk for residual malaria parasite transmission in Anopheles vectors even though the house is protected by IRS.

Abstract:
Baseline entomological information should be collected before the implementation of industrial projects in malaria endemic areas. This allows for subsequent monitoring and evaluation of the project impact on malaria vectors. This study aimed at assessing the vectorial system and malaria transmission in two ecologically different villages of the South-Cameroon forest bloc targeted for the creation of an agro-industrial complex. For four consecutive seasons in 2013, adult mosquitoes were captured using Human Landing Catch in NDELLE village (located along a main road in a degraded forest with many fish ponds) and KOMBO village (located 5km far from the main road in a darker forest and crossed by the Mvobo River). Morpho-taxonomic techniques were used alongside molecular techniques for the identification of mosquito species. ELISA test was used for the detection of circumsporozoite protein antigen of &lt;em&gt;Plasmodium falciparum&lt;/em&gt;. Mosquito biting rate was higher in NDELLE than in KOMBO (28.18 &lt;em&gt;versus&lt;/em&gt; 17.34 bites per person per night). Mosquitoes had a strong tendency to endophagy both in NDELLE (73.57%) and KOMBO (70.21%). Three anophelines species were identified; &lt;em&gt;An. gambiae&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;An. funestus&lt;/em&gt; s.s and &lt;em&gt;An. moucheti&lt;/em&gt; s.s.. &lt;em&gt;An. gambiae&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;An. funestus&lt;/em&gt; s.s. represented the bulk of aggressive mosquitoes in NDELLE (n=10,891; 96.62%). &lt;em&gt;An. gambiae&lt;/em&gt; was responsible for 62.6% and 77.72% of malaria transmission in KOMBO and NDELLE respectively. Mean entomological inoculation rate recorded in KOMBO and NDELLE were 4.82 and 2.02 infective bites per person per night respectively. Vector control was mainly based on the use of long-lasting insecticidal nets and indoor residual spraying. The degraded forest environment added to the presence of fishponds resulted in the increase of aggressive mosquito density but not of malaria transmission. The managers should use these data for monitoring and evaluation of the impact of their project; malaria control strategies should be included in their project in order to mitigate the risk of increased malaria transmission as a result of the implementation of their projects.

Abstract:
The article deals with the works, the objects of which are different forms of improper direct speech representation by the example of Ukrainian and foreign language artistic discourses. Turning to human inner world, the ambiguity of his thoughts, feelings, behavior encourages writers to choose a certain style of presentation, where endophasy, ie internal, improperly direct, forms of actors' speech played an important role. The lack of single clear structure, typology and definition of the essence of improper direct speech in scientific research is due to the constant evolution of artistic speech, individual styles of writers who, even in their own works, can change the ways of representing a foreign language. The purpose of the article is to characterize the specifics of improper direct speech construction, to find out the functions of endophasy (inner) forms which Sofia Andrukhovych used in the novel “Feliх Austria”. The analysis focuses on the syntactic (availability of specific syntactic constructions), lexical (the use of subjective-evaluative lexemes with positive and negative connotations), morphological (the use of appropriate verbal-pronominal units), structural (representation of a certain number of sentences – from syntactically unarticulated construction to a complex syntactic integer) aspects that are inherent in the design and separation of inner speech in postmodern discourse. Thus, endophasy (inner) forms of speech in the novel is aimed at understanding their “I”, knowledge of the inner world, determining their own place in society, trying to find motivation for their own actions and people around them.

Essas espécies estão distribuídas nas duas subfamílias representadas nos gêneros Melanagromyza, Ophyomyia (Agromyzinae), Calycomyza e Liriomyza (Phytomyzinae). No gênero Melanagromyza, segundo maior da família, foram descritas sete novas espécies. Pela primeira vez foi encontrada nos gêneros Calycomyza, Liriomyza e Ophyomyia a herbivoria de capítulos de asteráceas. Além de aumentar o conhecimento sobre a diversidade do grupo, outra contribuição desta tese é a avaliação da especialização alimentar do grupo, que mantém o padrão da família com uma baixa proporção de generalistas. A partir dos dados de interação desses endófagos construímos uma rede de interações entre quinze espécies de Melanagromyza e suas plantas hospedeiras com o objetivo de avaliar sua estrutura de interações. Esta rede foi testada para investigar a existência de aninhamento e compartimentalização dessas interações. Outras questões investigadas foram a relação entre afinidade morfológica dos herbívoros e sua utilização de recursos, além do parentesco das plantas hospedeiras utilizadas pelas espécies de herbívoros. A estrutura de interações dessa rede possui um padrão bastante compartimentalizado, o que era esperado em interações de herbivoria entre insetos que apresentam alta especialização alimentar. Quanto aos efeitos do parentesco na estruturação da rede de interações, verificamos resultados diferentes para os insetos e as plantas.

Those species belong to genera of the two subfamilies, respectively Melanagromyza, Ophyomyia (Agromyzinae), Calycomyza and Liriomyza (Phytomyzinae). In Melanagromyza, the second largest genus in the family, seven new species were described. Herbivory of Asteraceae flower-heads was recorded for the first time in Calycomyza, Liriomyza and Ophyomyia. Besides increasing the knowledge of agromyzid diversity, this study contributes to the evaluation of host range patterns in the family, which confirms that most agromyzids are specialized on a plant genus or tribe, with a small percentage of generalistic species. From the feeding records between endophages and their host plants we built an interaction matrix, in order to evaluate their interaction structure. The network shows both a nested and a compartmented pattern, suggesting a compound structure. The structure of the analyzed network has both a nested and a compartmented pattern. Compartmentation is expected for interactions between herbivore insects with such specialized feeding habits. In addition, other issues were investigated in this study: Do morphologically similar herbivore species use the same plants? Are plants used by the same herbivore species phylogenetically related? Regarding the family relationship based on the interactions structure, we found divergent results for insects and for plants. The categorization of Melanagromyza species based on their male genital morphology showed no relation with the herbivore groups based on their host use in a bidirectional cluster analysis. On the other hand, plants showed strong agreement between the taxonomic affinities of the species and the groups based on their shared herbivores in the bidirectional analysis<br>Doutorado<br>Ecologia<br>Doutor em Ecologia

Abstract:
Host-Associated Differentiation (HAD) is the formation of genetically divergent hostassociated lineages maintained by ecological isolation. HAD is potentially an important route to ecological speciation in parasites including many insects. While HAD case studies are accumulating, there is a dearth of negative results in the literature making it difficult to know how common the phenomenon really is or whether there are specific traits of parasites which promote HAD. To address these two problems, studies are needed which both publish negative results (i.e., parasites not showing HAD) and test for HAD in multiple parasite species on the same pair of host species (i.e., control for host plant effects). In this study, HAD was tested in three species of herbivorous insects and one parasitoid species on the same two host tree species: pecan and water hickory. The insects were selected based on the presence or absence of two traits, parthenogenesis and endophagy. A test for HAD was considered “positive” when population substructure was explained by host-association. To test for the presence of HAD, insects were sampled sympatrically to eliminate geographical isolation as a confounding factor, sampling was replicated spatially to assure that HAD persisted, and multiple loci were sampled from each individual. Genetic data was analyzed using cluster analyses. HAD was found in both pecan leaf phylloxera and yellow pecan aphid but not in pecan bud moth or in the parasitoid of the yellow pecan aphid, Aphelinus perpallidus. Interestingly, both taxa showing HAD are parthenogenetic and both taxa not showing HAD reproduce sexually. Species showing HAD were tested for the presence of a pre-mating reproductive isolating mechanism (RIM) which could be maintaining HAD despite the potential for gene flow. Selection against migrants to the alternative host was tested in yellow pecan aphid using a no-choice fitness experiment. The overall contribution of this RIM to total isolation was positive and ranged from 0.614 to 0.850. The RIM of “habitat preference” was tested in pecan leaf phylloxera using a dual-choice preference experiment. In this species, preference was only detected for phylloxera originating from water hickory suggesting that host discrimination ability may be a less important factor promoting differentiation in phylloxera.
