Journal ArticleDOI
Pictorial keys for the identification of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) associated with Dengue Virus Transmission
TL;DR: Identification keys are provided for female adults and fourth stage larvae of the mosquito species likely to transmit dengue viruses in 4 regions of the world, allowing optimum depth of field and resolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global diversity of mosquitoes (Insecta: Diptera: Culicidae) in freshwater
TL;DR: Relevant information about mosquitoes from various regions of the world are noted, including their morphology, taxonomy, habitats, species diversity, distribution, endemicity, phylogeny, and medical importance.
Journal ArticleDOI
First record of the Asian malaria vector Anopheles stephensi and its possible role in the resurgence of malaria in Djibouti, Horn of Africa
TL;DR: Rapid interruption of the urban malaria transmission cycle, based on integrated vector surveillance and control programs aimed at the complete eradication of A. stephensi from the African continent, is strongly recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A coordinated, multidisciplinary program to link data sets and information derived from eco-climatic remote sensing activities, ecologic niche modeling, arthropod vector, animal disease-host/reservoir, and human disease surveillance for febrile illnesses into a predictive surveillance program that generates advisory and alerts on emerging infectious disease outbreaks.
Journal ArticleDOI
