The mosquito-borne yellow fever virus (YFV) is the cause of a zoonotic disease, with both sylvatic and urban cycles. Some mosquito species have been associated directly with transmission of the virus in South America, although the importance given to each species varies depending on the bibliography, geographical location, or year of publication. For Argentina, few publications have assessed the involvement of mosquito species, especially those included in the sylvatic cycle. Therefore, the goal of our paper was to gather all the information available in South America and categorize all mosquito species potentially involved in the YFV transmission cycle in Argentina according to incriminating vector criteria. Based on three main characteristics ('Hosts', 'Mosquito vector', and 'YF outbreak'), we generated scales of importance by species, one exclusively for Argentina and another for all of South America, Sabethes albiprivus Theobald, 1903 was the most important species in Argentina; whereas the most important species in South America were Haemagogus janthinomys Dyar 1921, Hg. leucocelaenus Dyar and Shannon, 1924, and Sa. chloropterus Von Humboldt, 1819. Our review highlights the lack of research that evaluates the importance of these species for YFV transmission in Argentina, while serving as a starting point to establish priorities for research on the bionomics and vector status of these species.
黄热病毒（YFV）通过蚊子传播，可引起人畜共患病，存在丛林和城市两种循环。在南美的一些蚊子种类直接与该病毒的传播有关，但每种蚊子在病毒传播中的重要性因文献、地理位置或出版年份而有所不同。在阿根廷，很少有出版物评估蚊子种类的参与情况，特别是那些与丛林循环有关的蚊子种类。因此，我们的论文旨在收集南美的所有信息，并根据罪魁祸首的媒介标准对阿根廷可能参与 YFV 传播周期的所有蚊子种类进行分类。根据“宿主”、“蚊子媒介”和“YF 爆发”三个主要特征，我们根据物种生成了重要性等级，一个专门针对阿根廷，另一个针对整个南美洲，在阿根廷，最重要的物种是 Sabethes albiprivus Theobald, 1903；而在南美洲，最重要的物种是 Haemagogus janthinomys Dyar 1921、Hg. leucocelaenus Dyar and Shannon, 1924 和 Sa. chloropterus Von Humboldt, 1819。我们的综述强调了缺乏评估这些物种在阿根廷对 YFV 传播的重要性的研究，同时为研究这些物种的生态学和媒介地位确定了优先事项。
