IntroductionAedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1854) was reported in Brazil for the first time in 1986, and has displayed successful expansion throughout the Brazilian territory. MethodsDuring a routine activity to control dengue conducted by the Division of Entomology of the Municipal Health Department in Rio Branco, adults and immatures of Culicidae were collected in a peri-urban area. ResultsThe Culicidae forms identified indicated that they belonged to the species Ae. albopictus. ConclusionsThis is the first official record of the presence of Ae. albopictus in the state of Acre, confirming its current presence in all Brazilian states.
