INTRODUCTION
This study evaluated the effects of cattle removal on the Culicidae mosquito community structure in a tropical dry forest in Brazil.
METHODS
Culicidae were collected during dry and wet seasons in cattle presence and absence between August 2008 and October 2010 and assessed using multivariate statistical models.
RESULTS
Cattle removal did not significantly alter Culicidae species richness and abundance. However, alterations were noted in Culicidae community composition.
CONCLUSIONS
This is the first study to evaluate the impact of cattle removal on Culicidae community structure in Brazil and demonstrates the importance of assessing ecological parameters such as community species composition.
引言
本研究评估了在巴西热带干旱森林中去除牛只对蚊科蚊子群落结构的影响。
方法
于2008年8月至2010年10月期间，在有牛和无牛的情况下，于旱季和雨季收集蚊科昆虫，并使用多变量统计模型进行评估。
结果
去除牛只并未显著改变蚊科物种的丰富度和数量。然而，蚊科群落组成出现了变化。
结论
这是第一项评估在巴西去除牛只对蚊科群落结构影响的研究，并证明了评估诸如群落物种组成等生态参数的重要性。
