- Francisco Campos-Rivadeneira and Roberto Levi- Castillo: Their lives and contributions to the study of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in Ecuador Giovani Marcelo Ramón Rodolfo Pérez Pablo Jarrín Medicina history Ecuador Culicidae entomology classification The study of mosquitoes is important in the prevention of vector-borne diseases. In Ecuador, the study of local mosquito biodiversity was pioneered by two entomologists whose contributions span through the first half of the 20th century, Francisco Campos- Rivadeneira and Roberto Levi-Castillo. Both of them contributed to general aspects of Entomology and to particular insights in mosquito taxonomy. Their publications and discoveries were recognized by the international scientific community but went unnoticed in South America during their time. Today, very few citizens remember the names and contributions of these two scientists. Here, we provide an overview of their lives, a summary of their contributions, and we conclude with a broader outlook on the practice of science in Latin America during their time. 2019 reseña 0120-4157 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=84359814016 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/843/84359814016/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/843/84359814016/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/843/84359814016/84359814016.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/843/84359814016/movil 10.7705/biomedica.v39i3.4415 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=843 Biomédica application/pdf Instituto Nacional de Salud Biomédica (Colombia) Num.1 Vol.39
