Colonization by tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus Skuse, 1894) of mountain areas over 600 m above sea level in the surroundings of Trento city, Northeast Italy
Originally from Southeast Asia, the tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus) is now found almost everywhere in the world. Additionally, it spread throughout all of Northeastern Italy’s cities, including Trento, and settled in the Alpine regions. The invasion of mountain regions in the Alps above 600 meters, which is generally thought to be the upper limit of Ae. Albopictus’s range, is confirmed for the first time in this note. We observed it in the summer of 2023 between 615 and 708 meters above sea level in the Trento region’s surrounding mountains, specifically in the Montevaccino and Sopramonte localities. The mosquito was caught using ovitraps, and by raising the eggs to adulthood in a lab, the species identification was verified. This finding heightens worries about how tropical insect species, which are favored by global warming, may invade the mountains and affect tourism.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Entomological and Acarological Research (JEAR), formerly the Bollettino di Zoologia Agraria e di Bachicoltura of the Institute of Entomology of the Università degli Studi, Milano, was founded in 1928 by Remo Grandori. Thereafter, Minos Martelli and Luciano Süss hold the direction of the Journal until December 2011. In January 2012 the Editor decided for the new open-access on-line version of JEAR. The Journal publishes original research papers concerning Arthopods, but reviews, editorials, technical reports, brief notes, conference proceeding, letters to the Editor, book reviews are also welcome. JEAR has four main areas of interest: -Entomology (systematics; morphology; biology; biotechnology; agriculture, ornamental and forest entomology; applied entomology; integrated pest management; biological control; apiculture and apidology; medical, urban and veterinary entomology; etc.) -Stored product pests (biology; integrated pest management; etc.) -Insect Ecology (behaviour; biodiversity; taxonomy; plant insect interaction and ecosystems; biological control; alien species; etc.) -Acarology (systematics; morphology; biology; parasitology; control; etc.) The publication of manuscripts is subject to the approval of the Section Editor who has knowledge of the field discussed in the manuscript in accordance with the principles of Peer Review; referees will be selected from the Editorial Board or among qualified scientists of the international scientific community. Articles must be written in English and must adhere to the guidelines and details contained in the Instructions to Authors.
