Table 1.
Mosquito taxa collected from June 2014 to June 2015 in breeding sites located at the Poço das Antas Biological Reserve in southeastern Brazil.
Fig 2.
Species-by-site matrix for 28 mosquito species collected in four types of breeding sites in a forest fragment at the Poço das Antas Biological Reserve in southeastern Brazil.
Rectangles represent species occurrence in each type of breeding site and are colored according to the number of individuals found therein. Breeding sites are ordered from left to right by the number of species, and species are ordered from top to bottom by the number of sites where the species occur, followed by the number of individuals. Note that only three species occur in more than one type of breeding habitat (Psorophora ferox, Anopheles triannulatus, and Toxorhynchites cf. trichopygus).
Fig 3.
Relative abundance of mosquito species in four types of breeding sites in a forest fragment at the Poço das Antas Biological Reserve in southeastern Brazil.
Points represent species, and colors represent the type of breeding habitat type. Dominant species–i.e., those whose relative abundance is higher than 1/S, where S is the number of species in a given breeding habitat–are indicated.
Fig 4.
Individual-based species accumulation curves for mosquito species collected in four types of breeding sites in a forest fragment at the Poço das Antas Biological Reserve in southeastern Brazil.
The curves are extrapolated to 827 individuals, which corresponds to the maximum number of individuals sampled among the four types of breeding sites. Solid lines, circles and dashed lines represent the interpolated, observed and extrapolated number of species, respectively. Shaded areas represent the 95% confidence intervals.
Fig 5.
Diversity profile of mosquito assemblages found in four types of breeding sites in a forest fragment at the Poço das Antas Biological Reserve in southeastern Brazil.
The graph shows the values of three diversity indices–(i) species richness, (ii) the exponential of Shannon’s entropy index (Shannon diversity), and (iii) the inverse of Simpson’s concentration index (Simpson diversity)–derived from extrapolation curves for 827 individuals (see Fig 4) for each type of breeding site. Error bars represent the 95% confidence intervals.
