Primeros hallazgos de Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1894) en la provincia de Valencia, España

First findings of Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1894) in the province of Valencia, Spain Framed within the project "Entomological surveillance at airports and ports against vectors of imported infectious diseases, and sur- veillance of potential native vectors of these diseases", on Septem- ber 2011 Aedes albopictus (Diptera, Culicidae) is reported for the first time in the province of Valencia in the coastal municipalities of Sueca, Cullera and Gandia, using oviposition traps.

Aedes albopictus diversity and relationships in south-western Europe and Brazil by rDNA/mtDNA and phenotypic analyses: ITS-2, a useful marker for spread studies

AbstractBackgroundAedes albopictusis a very invasive mosquito, which has recently colonized tropical and temperate regions worldwide. Of concern is its role in the spread of emerging or re-emerging mosquito-borne diseases.Ae. albopictusfrom south-western Europe and Brazil were studied to infer genetic and phenetic diversity at intra-individual, intra-population and inter-population levels, and to analyse its spread.MethodsGenotyping was made by rDNA 5.8S-ITS-2 and mtDNAcox1 sequencing to assess haplotype and nucleotide diversity, genetic distances and phylogenetic networks. Male and female phenotyping included combined landmark-and outlined-based geometric morphometrics of wing size and sha…
