A study of Spissipes Section of Culex (Melanoconion) adults behaviour was carried out from August 1992 through December 1993 in human dominated (anthropic) environment in the Ribeira Valley, S. Paulo State, Brazil. By sampling at several sites it the dominance of Culex ribeirensis and Cx. sacchettae became evident even through a total number of ten species was recorded. Those two mosquitoes showed a clear tendency to frequent the domiciliary environment where they were caught, both indoor and outdoor, through the use of the human bait. In the outside environments, the residual patchy forests seems to display a concentration role, from which these adults spread to the open land and reach the dwellings. As their vector competence has been demonstrated through the virus isolations in natural conditions, it is advisable to pay attention to the presence of these mosquitoes in the man-made environment.
1992年8月至1993年12月，在巴西圣保罗州里贝拉河谷人类主导（人为）环境中，对库蚊（黑蚊亚属）斯皮西佩斯组成虫的行为进行了研究。通过在多个地点采样，即使记录到总共10个物种，里贝拉库蚊和萨克切塔库蚊的优势地位也变得明显。这两种蚊子表现出明显的倾向，即通过使用人饵，频繁出现在室内和室外捕捉到它们的居住环境中。在外部环境中，残留的斑块状森林似乎起到了聚集作用，这些成虫从那里扩散到开阔地带并到达住所。由于它们的媒介能力已在自然条件下通过病毒分离得到证实，因此建议关注这些蚊子在人为环境中的存在。
