title: [Aedes albopictus (Skuse) (Diptera, Culicidae) in eastern Veneto].
abstract: A survey was carried out in autumn 1992 and spring-autumn 1993 to study the seasonal distribution and the dispersal of Aedes albopictus (Skuse) in Portogruaro (province of Venice; North-Eastern Italy). Larvae and pupae were found from May through September; the larvae hatching from eggs after the end of September seemed unable to complete development. The adults bit until October. The mosquito spread in new areas of Portogruaro town, even after insecticidal treatments. Private areas seemed to play an important role in the preservation of the infestation, as they were not treated by the public pest control service.
