Allergy to stings and bites from rare or locally important arthropods: Worldwide distribution, available diagnostics and treatment

Allergy, Volume 78, Issue 8, Page 2089-2108, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Insect venom allergy is the most frequent cause of anaphylaxis in Europe and possibly worldwide. The majority of systemic allergic reactions after insect stings are caused by Hymenoptera, and among these, vespid genera induce most of the systemic sting reactions (SSR). Honey bees are the second leading cause of SSR.

Trapping Triatominae in Silvatic Habitats [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2002
Large-scale trials of a trapping system designed to collect silvatic Triatominae are reported. Live-baited adhesive traps were tested in various ecosystems and different triatomine habitats (arboreal and terrestrial). The trials were always successful, with a rate of positive habitats generally over 20% and reaching 48.4% for palm trees of the Amazon ...

Vegetation cover and biodiversity reduce parasite infection in wild hosts across ecological levels and scales

Ecography, Volume 2023, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Land use changes and biodiversity loss critically disrupts ecosystem functioning and are major drivers of infectious disease outbreaks. Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas disease, is a multi‐host parasite whose epidemiology has changed due to the expansion of anthropogenic activities over natural areas.
