Genetic studies preceded by the observation of an unknown mosquito species in Mikołów (Poland) confirmed that it belongs to a new invasive species in Polish fauna, (Theobald, 1901), a known vector for numerous infectious diseases. is expanding its geographical presence, raising concerns about potential disease transmission given its vector competence for chikungunya virus, dengue virus, West Nile virus, and Zika virus. This first genetically confirmed identification of in Poland initiates a comprehensive review of the literature on , its biology and ecology, and the viral infections transmitted by this species. This paper also presents the circumstances of the observation of in Poland and a methodology for identifying this species.
在米科洛沃(波兰)观察到一种未知的蚊子物种后进行的遗传研究证实,它属于波兰动物群中新的入侵物种,(Theobald,1901 年),是许多传染病的已知媒介。它正在扩大其地理存在,鉴于其对基孔肯雅病毒、登革热病毒、西尼罗河病毒和寨卡病毒的媒介能力,引起了对潜在疾病传播的关注。这是在波兰首次通过基因确认鉴定出这种蚊子,这引发了对该物种的文献、生物学和生态学以及由该物种传播的病毒感染的全面审查。本文还介绍了在波兰观察到的情况和识别这种物种的方法。
