我们评估了埃及伊蚊和Ae. 2002年8月至2004年7月，巴西新伊瓜苏和里约热内卢市城市、郊区和农村地区的白纹伊蚊。主要是阿。埃及女性和男性被抓获在城市地区（56%）和室内（78%），这表明该物种的偏好，以休息室内和高人口密度的地区，有利于病媒-人类接触的行为。与此同时，阿。雌性和雄性白纹伊蚊在农村地区（93%）和户外（90%）更为常见，表明它们喜欢在植被较多的地区休息，减少了病媒与人接触的可能性，从而减少了它们在该地区登革热传播中的潜在作用。
We evaluated the intra- and peri-domiciliary distribution of Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus in urban, suburban, and rural districts in the municipalities of Nova Iguacu and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from August 2002 to July 2004. Mostly Ae. aegypti females and males were captured in urban areas (56%) and indoors (78%), suggesting a preference by this species to rest inside houses and in areas with high human density, a behavior that favors vector-human contact. Meanwhile, Ae. albopictus females and males were much more common in rural areas (93%) and outdoors (90%), demonstrating their preference to rest in areas with more vegetation, reducing both the probability of vector-human contact and thus their potential role in dengue transmission in the area.
