Molecular Identification and Phylogeny of Natural <i>Wolbachia</i> Infection in Iranian Mosquitoes With a New Record of <i>Wolbachia</i> Supergroup B Infecting <i>Anopheles hyrcanus</i> Populations. [PDF]

J Trop Med
Background Mosquitoes are significant vectors of infectious diseases such as malaria and arboviruses, which pose public health challenges globally. Anopheles hyrcanus is widely distributed in northern Iran and neighboring Middle Eastern countries and is considered a potential vector of mosquito‐borne diseases in these regions.

Morphological and molecular characterization of Anopheles (Anopheles) maculipennis Meigen, type species of the genus and nominotypical member of the Maculipennis Complex

, 2003
Adults and larvae of Anopheles maculipennis Meigen were collected in Greece in May and June 2001. Larvae and the progeny of wild-caught females were individually reared to obtain samples of all life stages for integrated morphological and molecular study.

Mosquitoes of the Maculipennis complex in Northern Italy

Scientific Reports, 2021
The correct identification of mosquito vectors is often hampered by the presence of morphologically indiscernible sibling species. The Maculipennis complex is one of these groups that include both malaria vectors of primary importance and species of low ...

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 ...
