“…Culiseta longiareolata a été signalée présente dans douze gîtes larvaires: onze artificiels et un naturel, distribués sur sept communes: Tizi-Ouzou, Draa Ben Khedda, Beni Aissi, Ouaguenoun, Azazga, Tigzirt, Ait Yahia Moussa. C'est une espèce cosmopolite (Khaligh et al, 2020) qui présente une grande capacité à coloniser différents gîtes. Plusieurs auteurs ont indiqué la présence de cette espèce en Algérie, notamment Messai et al (2010) à Mila, Bouabida et al (2012 à Tébessa, Amara Korba et al (2015) au lac Tonga, Hamaidia & Berchi (2018) à Souk-Ahras, Benhissen et al (2018) à Bousaada et Nabti & Bounechada (2019) à Sétif.…”

Dans le but d’améliorer nos connaissances sur la diversité spécifique de la faune Culicidienne au niveau de la région de Tizi-Ouzou (Nord d’Algérie), nous avons mené un échantillonnage bimensuel dans 20 gîtes larvaires différents au cours d’une période allant du mois de février 2019 jusqu’au mois de juin 2020. Treize (13) espèces ont été recensées (Aedes (Ochlerotatus) caspius (Pallas, 1771), Aedes (Finlaya) geniculatus (Olivier, 1791), Anopheles maculipennis s.l. Meigen, 1818, Anopheles (Anopheles) claviger (Meigen, 1804), Culex (Culex) pipiens Linnaeus,1758, Culex (Maillotia) deserticola Kirkpatrick, 1925, Culex (Maillotia) hortensis Ficalbi, 1889, Culex (Neoculex) impudicus Ficalbi, 1890, Culex (Neoculex) territans Walker,1856, Culex (Culex) perexiguus (Theobald, 1903), Culiseta (Allotheobaldia) longiareolata (Macquart, 1838), Culiseta (Culiseta) subochrea (Edwards, 1921), Uranotaenia (Pseudoficalbia) unguiculata (Edwards,1913) appartenant à cinq genres (Aedes, Anopheles, Culex, Culiseta, Uranotaenia). Culex pipiens est l’espèce la plus abondante avec une fréquence relative de 44,53%, suivie par Culiseta longiareolata avec 41,96%.

Introduction Arboviral diseases, such as dengue, chikungunya, yellow fever, and Zika, are caused by viruses that are transmitted to humans through mosquito bites. However, the status of arbovirus vectors in eastern Ethiopia is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate distribution, breeding habitat, bionomics and phylogenetic relationship of Aedes aegypti mosquito species in Somali Regional State, Eastern Ethiopia. Methods Entomological surveys were conducted in four sites including Jigjiga, Degehabur, Kebridehar and Godey in 2018 (October to December) to study the distribution of Ae. aegypti and with a follow-up collection in 2020 (July-December). In addition, an investigation into the seasonality and bionomics of Ae. aegypti was conducted in 2021 (January-April) in Kebridehar town. Adult mosquitoes were collected from indoor and outdoor locations using CDC light traps (LTs), pyrethrum spray collection (PSCs), and aspirators. Larvae and pupae were also collected from a total of 169 water-holding containers using a dipper between October and November 2020 (rainy season) in Kebridehar town. The species identification of wild caught and reared adults was conducted using a taxonomic key. In addition, species identification using mitochondrial and nuclear genes maximum likelihood-based phylogenetic analysis was performed. Results In the 2018 collection, Ae. aegypti was found in all study sites (Jigjiga, Degahabour, Kebridehar and Godey). In the 2020–2021 collection, a total of 470 (Female = 341, Male = 129) wild caught adult Ae. aegypti mosquitoes were collected, mostly during the rainy season with the highest frequency in November (n = 177) while the lowest abundance was in the dry season (n = 14) for both February and March. The majority of Ae. aegypt were caught using PSC (n = 365) followed by CDC LT (n = 102) and least were collected by aspirator from an animal shelter (n = 3). Aedes aegypti larval density was highest in tires (0.97 larvae per dip) followed by cemented cisterns (0.73 larvae per dip) and the Relative Breeding Index (RBI) was 0.87 and Container Index (CI) was 0.56. Genetic analysis of ITS2 and COI revealed one and 18 haplotypes, respectively and phylogenetic analysis confirmed species identification. The 2022 collection revealed no Ae. aegpti, but two previously uncharacterized species to that region. Phylogenetic analysis of these two species revealed their identities as Ae. hirsutus and Culiseta longiareolata. Conclusion Data from our study indicate that, Ae. aegypti is present both during the wet and dry seasons due to the availability of breeding habitats, including water containers like cemented cisterns, tires, barrels, and plastic containers. This study emphasizes the necessity of establishing a national entomological surveillance program for Aedes in Somali region.
