Ecoregional and altitudinal distribution of the principal malaria vectors in Colombia [PDF]

Malaria Journal
Background In Colombia, with over 100,000 cases reported in 2023, malaria is a significant vector-borne disease. The wide range of climates and highly variable topography and land cover of the country support a high species richness, favouring different ...

Distribution and phylogenetic diversity of Anopheles species in malaria endemic areas of Honduras in an elimination setting [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Anopheles mosquitoes are the vectors of malaria, one of the most important infectious diseases in the tropics. More than 500 Anopheles species have been described worldwide, and more than 30 are considered a public health problem. In Honduras,

Using capillary electrophoresis to identify Anopheline species in routine sampling sites [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
We developed the SOCCET method, allowing Species identification via simple Observation Coupled with Capillary Electrophoresis Technology. We describe its development and use to discriminate between nine Anopheles species of our samples collected in French Guiana.

Functional redundancy dampens precipitation change impacts on species‐rich invertebrate communities across the Neotropics

Functional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 7, Page 1559-1572, July 2022., 2022
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animal community responses to extreme climate events can be predicted from the functional traits represented within communities. However, it is unclear whether geographic variation in the response of functional community structure to climate change is primarily driven ...

Anthropophilic biting behaviour of Anopheles (Kerteszia) neivai Howard, Dyar & Knab associated with Fishermen’s activities in a malaria-endemic area in the Colombian Pacific

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
On the southwest Pacific Coast of Colombia, a field study was initiated to determine the human-vector association between Anopheles (Kerteszia) neivai and fishermen, including their nearby houses. Mosquitoes were collected over 24-h periods from mangrove

Phylogenetic signal at the Cytb-SertRNA-IG1-ND1 mitochondrial region in Anopheles (Kerteszia) neivai Howard, Dyar & Knab, 1913

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2017
Introduction: Mitochondrial DNA has proven its utility for the study of insect evolution. Genes such as cytochrome b (Cytb) and the transfer gene for serine (SertRNA) can be used to compare closely related organisms.
