The objective of this research is to characterize the monthly distribution of Anopheles species and its hourly frequency in Sao Jose do Mata Fome a rural area Community, Macapa AP. The samples were collected between February 2008 and January 2009 using two Shannon traps, the first being installed in an environment of gallery forest and the second in a peridomicile environment, between 1800h and 2400h. After collection, the material was packed in plastic bottles and transported to the Arthropoda laboratory of the Federal University of Amapa and then subjected to identification. A Total 6,435 specimens were registered, and 4,471 (69.48%) in peridomiciliary and 1,964 (30.52%) in the woods. The most abundant species were  Anopheles braziliensis  (35.68%), A. nuneztovari  (22.89%), A. peryassui  (13.63%), A. marajoara  (12.84%), A. darlingi  (7.74%) and 7.24% other species. Regarding the hourly frequency, the identified Anopheles showed variations both in the woods and peridomicile areas, at their peaks of abundance. The results will contribute to knowledge about the diversity of Anopheles in the State of Amapa, allowing the increase of information on the distribution of these species and their vectorial capacity in relation to malaria transmission in order to improve the effectiveness of control measures. Keywords: Abundance; Malaria; Seasonality; Shannon.
