Considerações gerais sôbre o indice "MK" (Malária-Kerteszia)

The authors present six tables, distributed in accordance with the soil relief, where all the studied areas in the States of Santa catarina and Paraná (brasil), are presented with the index statistic work. The quantitative value of the "MK" index is brought forward. The authors have arrived as the conclusions that the index "α" previonsly presented ar a conection factor is not consistent with the studies performed in the field. The authors, also in an effort of reporting the phytosociology of the worked areas with the corresponding index of quality (sociology of the anopheline), found three different types of habitats for the subgenus kerteszia in the region. In conclusion, the authors point out that the present paper only aims at a new introduction to new ecological methods, in the study of these problems.
