Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.Abstract Climate and environmental changes driven by global economic activities directly affect the physiology of insect vectors, such as Aedes spp., accelerating their development, increasing the number of generations per season and increasing the risk of transmission of aetiological agents. This study aimed to analyse how local climatic variables and

Resource Availability Overrides Predator Presence in Mosquito Oviposition Habitat Selection
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 424-435, May 2026.Gravid Culex quinquefasciatus balance predation risk against resource availability when selecting oviposition sites. In outdoor mesocosms, we factorially manipulated sugarcane jaggery (resource) and notonectid predators (adult vs. nymph; caged vs. free‐swimming) across 2 years.
