Abstract

The first detection of the tiger mosquito, Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1894), in the autonomous community of Galicia (Spain) is reported. The finding has been possible thanks to the collaboration between citizens, the citizen science application Mosquito Alert and the Rede Galega de Vixilancia de Vectores (ReGaViVec). At the beginning of August 2023, a same person submitted through the app several reports consistent with the tiger mosquito in the municipality of Moaña, in Pontevedra. The ReGaViVec entomological team confirmed the species and conducted vector surveillance in the area by placing traps (11 ovitraps and 3 BG-Sentinel 2 with BG-Lure attractant) with a weekly collection frequency. This finding represents the most northwestern detection of the tiger mosquito in the Iberian Peninsula and shows the crucial role of citizen science in vector surveillance.

[加利西亚白纹伊蚊的首次记录，由公民科学通过 "蚊子警报 "获得]。

据报道，西班牙加利西亚自治区首次发现白纹伊蚊（Skuse，1894 年）。这一发现要归功于市民、市民科学应用程序 "蚊子警报"（Mosquito Alert）和加利西亚病媒网络（Rede Galega de Vixilancia de Vectores，ReGaViVec）之间的合作。2023 年 8 月初，同一个人通过该应用程序提交了多份与庞特韦德拉省莫阿纳市的虎蚊相符的报告。ReGaViVec 昆虫学团队确认了这一物种，并通过放置诱捕器（11 个椭圆形诱捕器和 3 个带有 BG-Lure 吸引器的 BG-Sentinel 2）在该地区进行病媒监测，每周收集一次。这一发现是伊比利亚半岛西北部发现的最多的虎蚊，表明了公民科学在病媒监测中的重要作用。
