William C. Reeves and arbovirus research in Australia
William C. Reeves was invited to Australia in 1952 to take part in field studies of Murray Valley encephalitis. The results of his work led to various hypotheses which directed arbovirus research in Australia for a generation.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Arbovirus-related encephalitis.
Arthropod-borne virus encephalitis in the U.S.A. includes LaCrosse, St Louis, western equine, eastern equine, Venezuelan equine, and Powassan in that order of frequency. Diagnosis can be aided by the history of seasonal occurrence, climate, geographic location, exposure to vectors, and age of the patient.

[Epidemiology of encephalitis caused by arbovirus in the Brazilian Amazonia].
An overview of ecological, epidemiological and clinical findings of potential arthropod-borne encephalitis viruses circulating in the Amazon Region of Brazil are discussed. These viruses are the Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE), Western Equine Encephalitis (WEE), St. Louis Encephalitis (SLE), Mucambo (MUC) and Pixuna (PIX). These last two are subtypes
