An entomological review of invasive mosquitoes in Europe.

摘要: Among the invasive mosquitoes registered all over world, Aedes species are particularly frequent and important. As several of them potential vectors disease, they present significant health concerns for 21st century Europe. Five have established in mainland Europe, with two (Aedes albopictus japonicus) becoming widespread (Ae. aegypti) implicated disease transmission to humans The routes importation spread often enigmatic, ability adapt local environments climates rapid, biting nuisance vector both an ecomonic public concern. Europeans used cases dengue chikungunya travellers returning from tropics, but threat tourism Europe is substantive. Coupled that emerging issues European overseas territorities this paper first consider impacts remoter outposts If entomologists authorities address these mitigate their risks must be prepared share information better understand biology ecology, data on distribution control successes. This focusses greater detail entomological ecological aspects assist risk assessment process, bringing together a large amount gathered through ECDC VBORNET project.
