The spectral composition of a white light influences its attractiveness to Culex pipiens mosquitoes
Culex pipiens mosquitoes do not find all white lights equally attractive. White light created by combining red, green, and blue (RGB) LEDs is less attractive than broad‐spectrum white light. Abstract Insect attraction to artificial light can potentially facilitate disease transmission by increasing contact between humans and vectors.

The study reports heavy blackfly biting activity affecting captive nyala antelopes (Tragelaphus angasii) in the Vienna Zoo. A combined morphological and molecular approach was used to identify the causative agent as well as its phylogenetic relationship to other blackfly species of the subgenus Wilhelmia.

Sand flies are the exclusive vectors of leishmaniasis. This group of parasitic diseases is a serious public health problem in Morocco. The aim of this study was to investigate the sand fly fauna, mainly the species composition, biodiversity, and seasonal activity of sand flies in El Hajeb in central Morocco.

Phlebotominae sand flies in Paraguay: abundance distribution in the Southeastern region [PDF]
From September 1993 to August 2001, 7,190 phlebotomine were collected with CDC light trap in an endemic area for human leishmaniasis, in the departments of Misiones and Itap a, Paraguay. Eleven species were identified: Lutzomyia neivai (93.7%), L. whitmani (4.1%), and L. fischeri, L. shannoni, L. migonei, L. misionensis, L. cortelezzii, L.

Entomological Survey and Impact of Climatic Factors on the Dynamics of Sandflies in Central Morocco
Sandflies are small insects belonging to the order Diptera, which make up the Phlebotominae subfamily within the Psychodidae family. In the fight against leishmaniasis in the prefecture of Meknes, Morocco, a study of the phlebotomist population was carried out during the period of activity of sandflies while studying the link between the abundance of ...

Abstract Vesicular stomatitis (VS) is a vector‐borne viral disease that causes lesions in livestock, premises, county and state quarantines, and important economic losses. We investigated vector–habitat characteristics for vectors associated with VS in regions of recurrent disease within the western United States (US) that consistently lead to the ...
