Predicting Distribution of Aedes Aegypti and Culex Pipiens Complex, Potential Vectors of Rift Valley Fever Virus in Relation to Disease Epidemics in East Africa. [PDF]

, 2013
The East African region has experienced several Rift Valley fever (RVF) outbreaks since the 1930s. The objective of this study was to identify distributions of potential disease vectors in relation to disease epidemics.

Mosquito and arbovirus surveillance in wetlands of South‐East England: Comparison of two adult mosquito traps, use of a novel trap with FTA™ cards and arbovirus testing

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Trap performance: Mosquito Magnet® captured significantly more mosquitoes overall, while BG‐Sentinel showed greater species evenness and was more effective for Culex pipiens s.l. and broader species representation. Spatial variation: Mosquito abundance and species composition varied significantly between wetlands, highlighting the importance of site ...

An Experimental Hut Evaluation of Olyset Nets against Anopheline Mosquitoes after Seven years use in Tanzanian Villages. [PDF]

, 2008
Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) are advocated by WHO for protection against malaria. Of the three brands of LLINs currently approved by WHO, Olyset(R) is the only one currently granted full recommendation.

DNA barcoding and geometric morphometry of tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) in Thailand and a new record of a Thai horse fly

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Tabanus tenens identified in this study is a newly recorded species in Thailand. DNA barcoding using the cox1 gene identified tabanid species in the present study. WGM data from different sites served as a reference for species identification. Abstract Tabanid flies are gaining high medical and veterinary importance due to their role as a vector of ...

Wolbachia and arbovirus inhibition in mosquitoes [PDF]

, 2013
Wolbachia is a maternally inherited intracellular bacteria that can manipulate the reproduction of their insect hosts, and cytoplasmic incompatibility allows them to spread through mosquito populations.

Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1036-1049, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

Up and away: ontogenic transference as a pathway for aerial dispersal of microplastics [PDF]

, 2018
Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous pollutants found in marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. With so many MPs in aquatic systems it is inevitable that they will be ingested by aquatic organisms, and be transferred up through the food chain ...

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2785-2793, April 2026.
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.
