Abstrak/Abstract Culex quinquefasciatus Say, 1823 is an insect that served as a vector for urban lymphatic filariasis. The abundance of this mosquito could serve as an early indicator for filariasis transmission in endemic area. On the other hand, its active period could be key point for this disease elimination. The information of its activities and periodicity in Indonesia was still inadequate. This study was conducted to determine the periodicity of Cx. quinquefasciatus and its potency for the filariasis transmission in Pasirsari village and Simbangkulon village, Pekalongan, Central Java, Indonesia. Two villages were selected, since both had been known to have high occurrences for lymphatic filariasis. Human landing-biting method and hand net were used in mosquitoes collections. The sample collections were done both indoor and outdoor, from 6 pm to 6 am, with 1 h interval. In addition, the possible habitat and breeding places of this mosquito were also observed. The total of female mosquitoes that have been collected was 328. The abundance of Cx. quinquefasciatus was different between two villages. The peak activity was at 00.00 to 01.00 am for both indoor and outdoor collections. Drainages with stagnant polluted water near housing area were positively contained abundant of mosquitoes larvae. This result might indicate that there was a high possibility of filariasis transmission in this area. © 2016 Author(s).
