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 ...

Diversity of West Nile and Usutu virus strains in mosquitoes at an international airport in Austria

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 2096-2109, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Increased globalization and international transportation have resulted in the inadvertent introduction of exotic mosquitoes and new mosquito‐borne diseases. International airports are among the possible points of entry for mosquitoes and their pathogens.
