In our field work, Sa. fabricii was obtained as progeny of females captured both in the Atlantic and Amazon forests, and also as immature stages found in perforated bamboo internodes ( Coleção de Culicidae 2023).

Arbovirus infection records. None.

Occurrence in Brazil. States of Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Paraná, Rio de Janeiro, Rondônia, São Paulo and Rio Grande do Sul ( Lane & Cerqueira 1942; Lane 1953; Guimarães et al. 2000 a, 2000b; Gomes et al. 2010 (as Sa. undosus / fabricii / ignotus ); Chaves et al. 2014; Alencar & Gil-Santana 2015; Mucci et al. 2015; Abreu et al. 2019; Stanzani et al. 2023).
