Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
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.

Citizen science deepens the ecological and climatic dimensions of mosquito surveillance

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
As mosquito‐borne diseases continue to expand worldwide, integrating citizen science into vector surveillance presents untapped potential. This study compares ecological models of Aedes albopictus, an invasive mosquito and global vector of dengue and other arboviruses, in Spain (2020–2022), using two contrasting data sources: traditional traps and ...

Airborne Environmental DNA for Moth Monitoring: Effectiveness, Challenges, and Complementarity With Traditional Methods

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Airborne eDNA metabarcoding captured broad patterns of moth diversity and detected species missed by light traps, but failed to reflect abundance and recovered fewer species overall. Airborne eDNA shows promise as a complementary, non‐invasive tool for Lepidopteran monitoring, though methodological refinement remains essential.

Surveillance of West Nile Virus in Tunisia: Evidence from Human and Entomological Investigation

Viruses
West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne pathogen of the Flaviviridae family that poses recurring public health threats in Tunisia, where Culex pipiens is recognized as the primary vector. Identification of circulating strains in different mosquito species is essential for targeted prevention and control.
