Abstract
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease caused by Dengue virus. In 2016, the number of DHF patients in areas of Health services of Rowosari was 247 cases, IR 289.6/100.000 populations and the highest number of the patients was from Meteseh Village. The most usual mechanism happened in the vertical transmission, transovarial infection, from adult mosquito to the egg. The study was conducted to describe of entomological status of House Index (HI), Container Index (CI), Breteau Index (BI), House index (HI), Ovitrap Index (OI) of larvae as well as transovarial infection in Aedes sp. The research method was descriptive method by conducting test to the entomology status of DHF incidence. Based on the survey in Meteseh sub-village (XVI), a result found that average House Index 8.99%, Container Index 2.88%, Breteau Index 16.40%, HI 8,99 Ovitrap Index 35.46% with the egg density at 1.023 eggs. The identified mosquitoes were 30, and from the identification result of Aedes sp., two Aedes species were found, 28 Aedes aegypti,and only 2 Aedes albopictus. The transovarial infection in Aedes sp. using ELISA method was found 6 mosquito samples which were positive of dengue virus, with the detail in neighborhood 01 (1 sample), neighborhood 02 (2 samples), neighborhood 03 (3 samples). DHF in Meteseh Sub village in Semarang City was probably happened because correlated with transovarial infection.
Highlights
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) disease, a critical virus infection disease caused by Dengue virus, infect humans of all ages but especially children with characteristics of sudden high fever by manifesting bleeding and tend to causing shock syndrome and fatal

Summary
DHF disease, a critical virus infection disease caused by Dengue virus, infect humans of all ages but especially children with characteristics of sudden high fever by manifesting bleeding and tend to causing shock syndrome and fatal. This disease spread through the bite of either. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences. The transmission of Dengue virus in vector mosquito could happen vertically. The typical mechanism occurs when the virus entering the mosquito body it infects the mosquito’s ovarium and infects the produced eggs [2]
