AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Seven mosquito species are recorded for the 1st time for northeastern Argentina: Culex (Melanoconion) albinensis, Cx. (Mel.) elevator, Cx. (Mel.) intrincatus, and Cx. (Mel.) serratimarge for Formosa Province, and Sabethes (Peytonulus) undosus, Sa. (Sabethinus) melanoninphe, and Toxorhynchites (Lynchiella) theobaldi for Chaco Province. The geographical distribution of these species is extended to northeastern Argentina, and the number of species increases to 97 and 75 for the provinces of Chaco and Formosa, respectively.

The rise and resurgence of vector-borne diseases (VBDs) in Europe pose an expanding public health challenge, exacerbated by climate change, globalization, and ecological disruptions. Both arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) transmitted by ticks such as Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever and arboviruses transmitted by mosquitoes like dengue, Chikungunya, Zika, and Japanese encephalitis have broadened their distribution due to rising temperatures, changes in rainfall, and increased human mobility. By emphasizing the importance of interconnected human, animal, and environmental health, integrated One Health strategies are crucial in addressing this complex issue.

Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is an emerging mosquito-borne arbovirus of One Health importance that caused two large outbreaks in Rwanda in 2018 and 2022. Information on vector species with a role in RVFV eco-epidemiology in Rwanda is scarce. Here we sought to identify potential mosquito vectors of RVFV in Rwanda, their distribution and abundance, as well as their infection status.

Current arbovirus surveillance strategies in Australia involve mosquito collection, species identification, and virus detection. These processes are labour-intensive, expensive, and time-consuming and can lead to delays in reporting. Mosquito excreta has been proposed as an alternative sample type to whole mosquito collection, with potential to streamline the virus surveillance pipeline.

Malaria, caused by species and transmitted by mosquitoes, continues to pose a significant global health threat. Pipecolisporin, a cyclic hexapeptide isolated from , has emerged as a promising antimalarial candidate due to its potent biological activity and stability. This study explores the synthesis, antimalarial activity, and computational studies of pipecolisporin, aiming to better understand its therapeutic potential.
