[Aspects of larval density of Culex nigripalpus Theobald, 1901 (Diptera: Culicidae) in natural conditions].
A study was carried out in order to determined the larval population density of Culex nigripalpus, vector of different parasitic and viral diseases in the neotropical region. Two population from Havana and Havana City Provinces were studied during the period comprised between November 1986 and November 1987. The higher densities of this species appeared during December 1986 (838.2 larvae/m2) and November 1987 (495 larvae/m2) in Santa Cruz del Norte (Havana) and in November 1986 (343.2 larvae/m2), January 1987 (232.65 larvae/m2), February 1987 (580.8 larvae/m2) in the Lenin Park (Havana City).
