Aedes koreicus, a mosquito species originating from Japan, China, Korea, and parts of Russia, has been sporadically found in Europe since 2008. It is suspected to be a vector of a variety of viruses and nematodes. In Germany, one individual was found in 2015 in the city of Augsburg, situated in the federal state of Bavaria. Based on morphological and molecular species identification, this study reports a new finding of Ae. koreicus, about 370 km northwest from Augsburg. The sampling point is located in the city of Wiesbaden, in the federal state of Hesse, where four individuals were found over a period of 2 months in 2017. The re-finding of the species in the same location in May and July 2018 suggests that (a) the species was able to reproduce and overwinter at this site, and (b) spreading of non-native mosquito species is an ongoing process in Germany, which requires close monitoring.
白纹伊蚊是一种原产于日本、中国、韩国及俄罗斯部分地区的蚊虫,自2008年以来在欧洲时有发现。它被怀疑是多种病毒和线虫的传播媒介。在德国,2015年在位于巴伐利亚州的奥格斯堡市发现了一只白纹伊蚊。基于形态学和分子物种鉴定,本研究报告了在距奥格斯堡西北约370公里处新发现的白纹伊蚊。采样点位于黑森州的威斯巴登市,2017年在两个月的时间里在此发现了四只白纹伊蚊。2018年5月和7月在同一地点再次发现该物种,这表明:(a)该物种能够在该地点繁殖并越冬;(b)非本地蚊虫物种在德国的传播是一个持续的过程,需要密切监测。
