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 ...

First Detection of West Nile Virus (WNV) Lineage 2 in Mosquitoes in the Republic of Kosovo

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
West Nile virus (WNV, family Flaviviridae) is the most geographically widespread arbovirus affecting humans. It circulates between wild birds and mosquitoes, while humans and horses are dead‐end hosts. In recent years, several outbreaks have been reported from European countries, including the Balkan Peninsula.

The complexities of blood‐feeding patterns in mosquitoes and sandflies and the burden of disease: A minireview

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 5, September 2024.
Mosquitoes and phlebotomine sandflies are infectious disease vectors through hematophagy. The development of hematophagy likely provided an evolutionary advantage, offering a rich nutrient source for reproduction. These insects exhibit diverse blood‐feeding patterns, from invertebrates to various vertebrates. Multiple sensory cues to guide host‐seeking

Ecology and diversity of mosquito larvae in ponds and lagoons of Northwestern Spain Ecología y diversidad de las larvas de mosquitos en charcas y lagunas del noroeste de España

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 38-47, March 2024.
Most of the lagoons and ponds in Galicia (Spain) function as mosquito breeding sites. Species of health concern are among the most commonly found in the study area. Anopheles maculipennis s.l. is widely distributed, being especially common in rural areas. Culex pipiens and Culex theileri are common in urban areas.
