Beyond birds: rethinking bird‐centered pathogen models in light of insect migration

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Migration redistributes biomass, nutrients, and pathogens across ecosystems. For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long‐distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology.

Diversity of Culicoides Latreille, 1809 (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae) associated with chicken sheds in Governador Valadares, Brazil: description of a new species within the Culicoides paraensis species group

Boletín de la Asociación Española de Entomología
Culicoides biting midges (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae) are vectors of pathogens, including the emerging Oropouche virus in Latin America. Large areas of Brazil remain poorly surveyed in terms of species diversity.

Composition and Diversity Characteristics of Gut Microbiota during the Development of Telchinia issoria (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) is a traditional economic crop of high commercial value, whose cultivation is threatened by the leaf‐feeding pest Telchinia issoria. This study investigated how the gut microbiota of T. issoria shifts across its larval, pupal, and adult stages using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. ABSTRACT Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) was a traditional

Environmental drivers of Culicoides phenology: how important is species-specific variation when determining disease policy?

PLoS ONE, 2014
Since 2006, arboviruses transmitted by Culicoides biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) have caused significant disruption to ruminant production in northern Europe.

Sero‐Epidemiology and Molecular Detection of Bluetongue Virus in Goats in Bangladesh

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
The first large‐scale study in Bangladesh confirmed bluetongue virus infection in goats through combined c‐ELISA and nested RT‐PCR approaches, revealing high seroprevalence and identifying key management‐related risk factors. ABSTRACT Background Bluetongue (BT) is an arthropod‐transmitted, non‐contagious viral disease of domestic ruminants caused by ...
