The disappearance of malaria from Denmark, 1862–1900

The Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 555-574, May 2026.
Abstract The reason for malaria's disappearance from northwestern Europe in the early twentieth century has long been discussed but remains an unresolved conundrum. This is partially due to a previous focus on the early modern era, and partially because various theories have never been tested against each other.

Molecular Identification and Phylogeny of Natural Wolbachia Infection in Iranian Mosquitoes With a New Record of Wolbachia Supergroup B Infecting Anopheles hyrcanus Populations

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
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.

Urban Ponds and the Emerging Role of Garden Ponds: Ecosystem Services and Disservices, Multifunctionality, and Trade‐Offs

WIREs Water, Volume 12, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Urban ponds and garden ponds—a specific subset of the former, usually located in private gardens—are both typical examples of ponds in the urban landscape. They deliver multiple ecosystem services but can also contribute to ecosystem disservices. The role of garden ponds is largely unknown compared to other urban ponds.

Host‐feeding preferences of Culex pipiens and its potential significance for flavivirus transmission in the Camargue, France

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 614-625, September 2025.
We identified Culex pipiens bloodmeals at the species level in natural, agricultural and peri‐urban habitats and calculated host preferences based on forage ratios. This analysis showed Passeriformes, and in particular Columba livia, Passer montanus and Turdus sp., to be the preferred Cx. pipiens hosts.

INSECT LIFE AND LETTERS: THE STUDIES OF HANNS HEINZ EWERS AND OTTO AND ROSE HECHT

German Life and Letters, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 342-363, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This article argues that vast histories of war and displacement in the twentieth century are connected to the small and almost unnoticeable lives of insects, and that philology has much to gain from paying attention to insect worlds. We examine two case studies: the work of the German entomologist Otto Hecht and his wife, Rose Caro Hecht, and ...
