Reduced bio-efficacy of aged PermaNet® 3.0 Nets against local pyrethroid-resistant Anopheles arabiensis in Western Kenya

open access: yesFrontiers in Tropical Diseases
BackgroundLong-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) are central to malaria control and designed to protect for up to three years; however, increasing pyrethroid resistance undermines their effectiveness.

Characterization of the Anopheles funestus group, including Anopheles funestus-like, from Northern Malawi

open access: yes, 2013
Background Limited information is available on malaria vector composition, feeding habits and malaria transmission in northern Malawi. Evidence of mosquito species diversity in this area was established in 2009, when Anopheles funestus-like, a new member

Impact of bauxite mining on mosquito communities (Diptera: Culicidae) and pathogen transmission risks in the eastern Amazon

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Bauxite mining in the Amazon alters mosquito communities, favouring anthropophilic and generalist vectors while reducing species diversity and the variety of blood meal sources. Molecular analyses identified humans, tapirs and deer as the primary blood meal sources.

Excito-repellency of deltamethrin on the malaria vectors, Anopheles minimus, Anopheles dirus, Anopheles swadiwongporni, and Anopheles maculatus, in Thailand.

open access: yesJournal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2004
This study compared the behavioral avoidance responses of 4 mosquito malaria vectors, Anopheles minimus, Anopheles dirus, Anopheles maculatus form B, and Anopheles swadiwongporni, to deltamethrin, the primary insecticide used for indoor residual spraying for malaria vector control in Thailand. Six test populations.

open access: yes, 2007
Subgenus Anopheles bancroftii subspecies barbiventris (var. barbiventris Brug, 1938). Syntypes (Ψ, %): Kalawara, Palow, res. Menado, Sulawesi, Indonesia (BM). Brug (1938) described and named An. bancroftii var. barbiventris from specimens that he distinguished from the nominotypical form and An. pseudobarbirostris Ludlow (as An.

Effects of Asaia spp. on the development, size and associated microbiomes of two mosquito species of medical importance

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Addition of Asaia species to the rearing water of mosquito larvae can affect the structure of the larval microbiome, although these bacteria do not persist to the pupal stage. Asaia inoculation can increase the adult size of males of two mosquito species. The impact of Asaia inoculation on development rate and female size depended on bacterial and host

Validation of Health Belief Model and Theory of Planned Behaviour Constructs for Predicting Malaria Vaccine Acceptance in Ghana: A Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling Approach

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study examines the predictive power of constructs from the health belief model (HBM) and theory of planned behaviour (TPB) in explaining malaria vaccine acceptance in Ghana in the post‐COVID‐19 era, while also assessing the reliability of these constructs within this context.

Natural Infection by Toscana Virus and Other Phleboviruses in Wild Sand Flies From Spain: Prevalence, Genetic Characterization and Tripartite Interactions With Leishmania infantum and Wolbachia

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Toscana virus (TOSV) and Leishmania species are sand fly‐borne pathogens that pose a significant public health threat and an increasing risk of exposure in Europe. The objective of this study was to identify the phleboviruses circulating in an area endemic for sand fly‐borne pathogens and to estimate infection prevalence in wild ...
