We compared the number of adult Aedes aegypti emerging from subsurface catch basins located in the streets against the number of pupae (as a proxy of adults emerging) from the entire container larval habitats found at residential premises within 1 ha of a neighborhood in the Mexican city of Merida during 8 days in the dry season of 2012. Aedes aegypti adults were collected from 60% of the subsurface catch basins. They produced 12 adults/day/ha (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.4 to 17.9), 5 females (95% CI, 2.1 to 7.7), and 7 males (95% CI, 3.8 to 10.7). In contrast, only 7 containers holding water were identified in 30 premises inspected, 1 bucket was positive for Ae. aegypti larvae, but no pupae-positive containers were found. No other mosquito species were found. This study revealed the importance of this type of nonresidential and subterranean aquatic habitat for Ae. aegypti adult production in this neighborhood of Merida during the dry season.
2012年旱季的8天里，我们比较了墨西哥梅里达市一个社区内1公顷范围内住宅场所中所有容器幼虫栖息地的蛹（作为即将羽化的成虫的代表）数量与街道地下集水池羽化出的成年埃及伊蚊数量。60%的地下集水池采集到了成年埃及伊蚊。它们的羽化量为12只成虫/天/公顷（95%置信区间[CI]，6.4至17.9），其中雌性5只（95%CI，2.1至7.7），雄性7只（95%CI，3.8至10.7）。相比之下，在检查的30处场所中，仅发现7个盛水容器，1个水桶中有埃及伊蚊幼虫，但未发现有蛹的阳性容器。未发现其他蚊种。这项研究揭示了这类非住宅和地下水生栖息地对梅里达市这个社区旱季埃及伊蚊成虫繁殖的重要性。
