The use of morphometrics in entomological surveillance of sylvatic foci of Triatoma infestans in Bolivia

Acta Tropica, 1997
Jamach'uma (Cochabamba, Bolivia) is a small village surrounded by sylvatic foci of Triatoma infestans. Houses in the village were also infested with T infestans, and were sprayed in December 1992 as part of a Chagas disease vector control trial. Ten months later the houses were found to be again infested with a few fifth instar nymphs of T.

Global habitat suitability and invasion risk of melon thrips

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Habitat suitability of Thrips palmi worldwide was predicted using the MaxEnt model. Precipitation of the driest month, precipitation of the wettest month and annual mean temperature were identified as the key climatic drivers influencing its distribution.

Multi‐angle, cross‐domain fusion strategy enhances automated insect identification and hierarchical categorization: a case study on assassin bugs (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Automated insect identification systems hold significant value for biodiversity monitoring, pest management, citizen science initiatives and systematic studies, particularly in an era of declining expertise in insect taxonomy. However, current deep learning approaches often rely on standardized specimen photos from limited‐angles and ...

Virological surveillance of Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti and Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus as support for decision making for dengue control in Medellín

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2017
Introduction: Dengue represents an important public health problem in Colombia. No treatment is available and the vaccine has not been approved in all countries, hence, actions should be strengthened to mitigate its impact through the control of Aedes ...

An effective model for community‐based conservation around authorized fishing settlements inside a devolved Wildlife Management Area in southern Tanzania

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study examines the relationship between community‐defined land use plans and de facto land use practices, and the influence of the latter on the relative abundance and distribution of large wild mammals across the Ifakara‐Lupiro‐Mangula (ILUMA) WMA, which acts as a key buffer zone between Nyerere National Park (NNP) to the east and adjacent ...

The relevance of wing geometry in entomological surveillance of Triatominae, vectors of Chagas disease

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2007
An important epidemiological challenge in controlling the Triatominae (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), vectors of Chagas disease, is identifying the origin of insects re-infesting treated areas, especially when reinfestation occurs during the first 1 or 2 years following insecticide application and in the absence of insecticide resistance.

Characterising the spatial dynamics of sympatric Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus populations in the Philippines

Geospatial Health, 2013
Entomological surveillance and control are essential to the management of dengue fever (DF). Hence, understanding the spatial and temporal patterns of DF vectors, Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (L.) and Ae. (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse), is paramount. In the

Landscape and Geography Determine Saproxylic Beetle Captures in Pheromone‐Baited Traps

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Pheromone‐baited traps at 39 forest sites across southern Sweden captured 58 saproxylic beetle species, including seven Red‐listed taxa. The effect of surrounding forest cover on beetle abundance may depend on latitude and longitude: positive effects were strongest in warmer southern and eastern regions but weakened or reversed in colder northwestern ...
