寨卡病毒已在非洲和亚洲广泛传播，最近在巴西东北部的两个州：巴伊亚州和北里奥格兰德州以及巴西东南部的一个州：圣保罗州报告了寨卡病毒的情况。这一发现将一种潜在的有毒病毒添加到由埃及伊蚊和白纹伊蚊在巴西广泛传播的其他几种病毒的列表中。回顾了病理学和流行病学，包括与寨卡病毒相关的分布和载体。本综述重点关注伊蚊传播的病毒，包括登革热、基孔肯雅热、寨卡病毒、马亚罗病毒和黄热病病毒，以强调这些虫媒病毒在巴西及其邻国发生的风险。讨论了其他种类的伊蚊（Stegomyia），强调它们参与虫媒病毒传播以及适应人类活动改变的环境和引入巴西的可能性。
Zika virus, already widely distributed in Africa and Asia, was recently reported in two Northeastern Brazilian: State of Bahia and State of Rio Grande do Norte, and one Southeastern: State of Sao Paulo. This finding adds a potentially noxious virus to a list of several other viruses that are widely transmitted by Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti and Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus in Brazil. The pathology and epidemiology, including the distribution and vectors associated with Zika virus, are reviewed. This review is focused on viruses transmitted by Aedes (Stegomyia) mosquitoes, including dengue, Chikungunya, Zika, Mayaro, and yellow fever virus, to emphasize the risks of occurrence for these arboviruses in Brazil and neighboring countries. Other species of Aedes (Stegomyia) are discussed, emphasizing their involvement in arbovirus transmission and the possibility of adaptation to environments modified by human activities and introduction in Brazil.
