Autor(es): CLARK, GG; SUAREZ, MF
Resumo: The third Spanish language symposium presented by the American Mosquito Control Association (AMCA) was held as part of the 59th Annual Meeting in Fort Myers, FL, in April 1993. The principal objective, as for the symposia held in 1991 and 1992, was to increase and stimulate greater participation in the AMCA by vector control specialists and public health workers from Latin America. This publication includes summaries of 25 presentations that were given in Spanish by participants from 8 countries in Latin America, Puerto Rico, and the USA. The symposium included the following topics: ecological, genetic, and control studies of anopheline vectors of malaria; laboratory evaluation and production of biological control agents for Aedes aegypti; community participation in the prevention of dengue; and studies of other medically important insects (e.g., Simulium and Triatoma).
