Patterns of genetic differentiation imply distinct phylogeographic history of the mosquito species Anopheles messeae and Anopheles daciae in Eurasia

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 20, Page 5609-5625, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Detailed knowledge of phylogeography is important for control of mosquito species involved in the transmission of human infectious diseases. Anopheles messeae is a geographically widespread and genetically diverse dominant vector of malaria in Eurasia. A closely related species, An. daciae, was originally distinguished from An.

Interactive effects of dragonfly larvae and Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis on mosquito oviposition and survival

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Abstract The biological larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) is used worldwide to control reproduction of mosquitoes in freshwater habitats. However, its impact on the ecosystem including nontarget species is often unclear. In addition, it is unknown how Bti larvicide may interact with local mosquito predators to shape oviposition ...

Thermal preference of adult mosquitoes (Culicidae) and biting midges (Ceratopogonidae) at different altitudes in Switzerland

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 562-573, September 2023., 2023
Mosquitoes and biting midges exhibited thermal preferences, the direction of which depended on the species. Altitude influenced species composition and diversity, but only had an effect on thermal preference of biting midges but not mosquitoes. Collections with resting boxes and oviposition cups were too low to determine adult resting and oviposition ...

Ťahyňa virus—A widespread, but neglected mosquito‐borne virus in Europe

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 70, Issue 5, Page 371-382, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Ťahyňa virus (TAHV) is an orthobunyavirus and was the first arbovirus isolated from mosquitoes in Europe and is associated with floodplain areas as a characteristic biotope, hares as reservoir hosts and the mammal‐feeding mosquitoes Aedes vexans as the main vector.

Amphibian abundance is associated with reduced mosquito presence in human‐modified landscapes

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract The impacts of landscape anthropization on mosquito abundance and diversity are already well studied, but the underlying ecological factors behind these effects are still poorly understood. One such underlying ecological factor may be related to the loss of amphibians in human‐modified landscapes, providing ideal habitats for several mosquito ...

Analysis of trapped mosquito excreta as a noninvasive method to reveal biodiversity and arbovirus circulation

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 410-423, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Emerging and endemic mosquito‐borne viruses can be difficult to detect and monitor because they often cause asymptomatic infections in human or vertebrate animals or cause nonspecific febrile illness with a short recovery waiting period. Some of these pathogens circulate into complex cryptic cycles involving several animal species as reservoir

Putative roles of mosquitoes (Culicidae) and biting midges (Culicoides spp.) as mechanical or biological vectors of lumpy skin disease virus

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 381-389, September 2022., 2022
Lumpy skin disease virus, mainly transmitted by Stomoxys calcitrans, was retained in different mosquito species for up to 10 days after feeding on virus‐spiked blood. Virus was detected from honey‐coated Flinders Technology Associates (FTA) cards (virus presumably deposited with saliva) and shedded faeces for 1 or 4 days, respectively, in the yellow ...

The new Internal Transcribed Spacer 2 diagnostic tool clarifies the taxonomic position and geographic distribution of the North American malaria vector Anopheles punctipennis

Malaria Journal, 2021
Background The malaria mosquito Anopheles punctipennis, a widely distributed species in North America, is capable of transmitting human malaria and is actively involved in the transmission of the ungulate malaria parasite Plasmodium odocoilei.
