The Culex pipiens complex in continental Portugal: distribution and genetic structure.

  • Autores: Almeida AP, Donnelly MJ, Gomes B, Novo MT, Parreira R, Pinto J, Sousa CA
  • Ano de Publicação: 2012
  • Journal: Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=The+Culex+pipiens+complex+in+continental+Portugal%3A+Distribution+and+genetic+structure.

Portugal is a southern European country that displays favorable ecological conditions for the establishment of West Nile virus (WNV) transmission cycles. Competent mosquito vector species are present throughout the country.

Mosquito fauna on the Cape Verde Islands (West Africa): an update on species distribution and a new finding

  • Autores: Alves J, Arez AP, Gomes B, Pinto J, Rodrigues R, Silva J, Sousa CA
  • Ano de Publicação: 2010
  • Journal: Journal of vector ecology : journal of the Society for Vector Ecology
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=Mosquito+fauna+in+Cape+Verde+islands+(West+Africa)%3A+an+update+on+species+distribution+and+a+new+finding

To evaluate the risk of transmission of vector-borne diseases, regular updates of the geographic distribution of insect vectors are required. In the archipelago of Cape Verde, nine mosquito species have been reported.

Feeding patterns of molestus and pipiens forms of Culex pipiens (Diptera: Culicidae) in a region of high hybridization

  • Autores: Almeida AP, Arez E, Calderón I, Donnelly MJ, Gomes B, Pinho L, Pinto J, Sousa CA, Vicente JL
  • Ano de Publicação: 2013
  • Journal: Parasites and Vectors
  • Link: http://www.parasitesandvectors.com/content/6/1/93

Two biological forms of the mosquito Culex pipiens s.s., denoted pipiens and molestus, display behavioural differences that may affect their role as vectors of arboviruses. In this study, the feeding patterns of molestus and pipiens forms were investigated in Comporta (Portugal), where high levels of inter-form admixture have been recorded.

Distribution and hybridization of Culex pipiens forms in Greece during the West Nile virus outbreak of 2010

  • Autores: Almeida APG, Gomes B, Kioulos E, Papa A, Pinto J, Vontas J
  • Ano de Publicação: 2013
  • Journal: Infection Genetics and Evolution
  • Link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23466890

In 2010, an outbreak of West Nile virus (WNV) infections occurred in the region of Thessaloniki, Central Macedonia, in northern Greece. During this period, Culex pipiens sensu stricto mosquitoes were found infected by WNV lineage 2. Cx. pipiens s.s. presents two distinct biological forms, denoted molestus and pipiens.
