Fourteen extracts from 7 species showed activity (> 65% mortality) against the larvae. Of these, Duguetia furfuracea, Piptocarpha rotundifolia, Casearia sylvestris var. lingua, Serjania lethalis, and Xylopia aromatica were active at 56.6, 162.31, 232.4, 285.76, and 384.37 mu g/ml, respectively. Annona crassiflora and Cybistax antisyphilitica showed activity at 23.06 and 27.61 mu g/ml. The larvicidal properties of these species are described for the first time, and may prove to be promising in active chemical compound isolation. specialized Aedes aegypti larvicides Brazilian Cerrado natural products 052 076 22 2 314-317 2006 8756-971X https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010038249 10.2987/8756-971X(2006)22[314:LAOSCP]2.0.CO;2 8756-971X [F B010038249] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010038249 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/depot/0001/010038249.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2006-08-30 2024-03-22 fdi:010038249 fre
