The research activity that has been developed focuses on the systematics and bioecology of Culicidae, in particular mosquito vectors of filariasis and arboviruses. With regard to the bioecology of this group, special attention continues to be given to immature forms, namely aspects related to the development and application of control methods for the species studied.
