Zika Virus in Gabon (Central Africa) – 2007: A New Threat from Aedes albopictus? (2014, background): “The increasing geographic range of Ae. albopictus in Africa, Europe, and the Americas [34,36,43,44], together with the ongoing ZIKV outbreak in French Polynesia at the time of writing [45] suggest this possibility should be seriously considered.”
The invasive mosquito species Aedes albopictus: current knowledge and future perspectives (2013, background): “The first record of this species in Europe (Albania) was in1979 [5].”
Biology of Zika Virus Infection in Human Skin Cells (2015, background): “albopictus (62), a rapidly expanding Aedes species that lives in close contact with human urban populations (63, 64) and that typically feeds not only at dusk and dawn but also in the daytime.”
Aedes albopictus, an arbovirus vector: from the darkness to the light. (2009, background): “albopictus population will continue to expand [54], especially in Central American and sub-Saharan African countries, which have a high number of potentially suitable niches for this species.”
A Review of the Invasive Mosquitoes in Europe: Ecology, Public Health Risks, and Control Options (2012, neutral): “…et al. 2010), and the critical photoperiod (12–14 h of daylight) that initiates the onset of diapausing eggs (Mitchell 1995; Med-lock et al. 2006; Benedict et al. 2007; Severini et al. 2008; Straetemans 2008, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control 2009), but what is clear is that…”
The global distribution of the arbovirus vectors Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus (2015, neutral): “This was important to avoid over-representation in regions where multiple surveys per year were performed, such as Taiwan or Brazil.”
Using district-level occurrences in MaxEnt for predicting the invasion potential of an exotic insect pest in India (2014, background): “, Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus (Benedict et al., 2007; Medley, 2010).”
Ecological niche conservatism: a time‐structured review of evidence (2011, result): “The mosquito example (Medley, 2010) is almost exactly parallel – niche models developed in a highly dimensional environmental space led to conclusions of niche shift, in this case in spite of a detailed previous analysis that showed clear niche conservatism (Benedict et al., 2007).”
Consequences of the Expanding Global Distribution of Aedes albopictus for Dengue Virus Transmission (2010, background): “albopictus began a dramatic geographic expansion that continues to the present day [1].”
Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus in Bermuda: extinction, invasion, invasion and extinction (2010, background): “A. albopictus originates from southeast Asia but has dramatically expanded its range to many tropical, subtropical and temperate regions, both in urban and rural areas around the world (e.g., Benedict et al. 2007; Hawley 1988; Lounibos 2002; Novak 1992; Urbanelli et al. 2000).”
