Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.Mosquito‐borne diseases are increasing globally, driven by the expanding range of invasive vectors, yet the mechanisms of their spread remain poorly understood. Using 20 years of invasion data from Spain, we combine high‐resolution human mobility data with a metapopulation model to study the colonisation dynamics of Aedes albopictus.

Drones for Area-Wide Larval Source Management of Malaria Mosquitoes
Drones, 2022 Given the stagnating progress in the fight against malaria, there is an urgent need for area-wide integrated vector management strategies to complement existing intra-domiciliary tools, i.e., insecticide-treated bednets and indoor residual spraying.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.ABSTRACT Riparian ecosystems are vital interfaces between aquatic and terrestrial environments but are increasingly impacted by anthropogenic pollution. In these systems, merolimnic insects serve as crucial ecological links, occupying aquatic habitats as larvae and terrestrial environments as adults, thus being an essential food source in both ...

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.OBP1 plays an essential role in the behavior response of Aedes aegypti. The computational approaches employed herein suggest a compound with repellency activity in the ZINC database, which was confirmed by bioassays. ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti is the most important vector of arboviruses, which are responsible for 3.9 billion cases worldwide.
