The faunistic knowledge of the Diptera Morocco recorded from 1787 to 2021 is summarized and updated in this first catalogue Moroccan species. A total 3057 species, classified into 948 genera 93 families (21 Nematocera 72 Brachycera), are listed. Taxa (superfamily, family, genus species) have been according current interpretations, based on reviews literature, expertise authors contributors, recently conducted fieldwork. Data compile were primarily gathered literature. In total, 1225...
In 2015, the mosquito Aedes albopictus was detected in Rabat, Morocco. This invasive species can be involved transmission of more than 25 arboviruses. It is known that each combination population and virus genotype leads to a specific interaction shape outcome infection. Testing vector competence local mosquitoes therefore prerequisite assess risks emergence. A field-collected strain Ae. from Morocco experimentally infected with dengue (DENV), chikungunya (CHIKV), zika (ZIKV) yellow fever...
Résumé. La leishmaniose cutanée est un important problème de santé publique dans la province Sidi Kacem au nord-ouest du Maroc. L'incidence cette affetion, due aussi bien à Leishmania tropica qu'à L. infantum en augmentation progressive depuis 1997. présente étude a été menée le but d'étudier l'écologie et dynamique des populations vecteurs maladie les principaux foyers province. Un total 4504 spécimens appartenant deux genres six espèces capturé l'aide pièges adhésifs lumineux, cinq foyers....
Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) due to Leishmania tropica is a major health problem in Tadla-Azilal focus, Morocco, where the first case was registered, here, one locality named Tanant 1987. So far, CL remains endemic and largely widespread. The objective of this study analyze current eco-epidemiological situation after thirty years active transmission. Data used are official ones, obtained from Moroccan Ministry Health. Between 1998 2015, 5518 cases were registered three provinces; Azilal,...
This paper presents the first results of 1-year survey aquatic Diptera, carried out in two Moroccan High Atlas rivers, Assif Ahançal and n’Aït Bouguemaz, which are registered as Ramsar sites drain a large part mountainous Geopark Mgoun. survey, consists study longitudinal distribution these insects, occurs during period September 2019–July 2020, at high medium altitudes (1086–2408 m). Limited to immature stages, this permitted collect 561 specimens Diptera from 16 river sections, mainly...
La presente etude evalue la sensibilite aux organophosphores de quatre especes Culicidae : Culex pipiens, Ochlerotatus detritus, caspius et Anopheles labranchiae recoltees dans region Smir (Nord-Ouest du Maroc).Les cinq etudies (Temephos, Malathion, Fenthion, Fenitrothion Chlorpyriphos) sont frequemment utilises lutte contre les moustiques au Maroc.Les tests (bioessais) devoilent resistance des detritus Temephos pipiens Chlorpyriphos.Les resultats cette pourront servir comme base donnees...
Abstract Background The present study conducted on mosquitoes in the region of Restinga Smir, located north-west Morocco, attempts to provide a scientific platform for an appropriate mosquito control plan this tourism spot. aim is perfect methods means effective fight against area, known their strong nuisance (bites) and ability transmit several deadly diseases. Results Monitoring species Smir marshes, especially those public health interest, shows that they are distributed differently...
Natural History Collections (NHC) serve as repositories of a wide range specimens that are valuable resources for genetic studies. These specimens, housed in natural history museums, herbaria, or research institutes, can be accessed physically or, increasingly, online, due to current digitization efforts. They provide insights into past populations unaffected by recent anthropogenic and climatic changes, well those have become extinct. However, the DNA extracted from NHC is often degraded...
The Republic of Djibouti is located in the Horn Africa, on Gulf Aden and Bab-el-Mandeb detroit, at southern entrance to Red Sea. Prior its independence 1977, was known by two names: "Côte française des Somalis" until 1967, then "Territoire Français de Afars et Issas". As part our doctoral research ecology mosquitoes Djibouti, we noted a lack information species encountered, felt it essential draw up list before embarking ecological monitoring. aim this work survey publications synthesize...
Background: Phlebotomus sergenti, the proven vector of Leishmania tropica, causative agent anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis, is widely distributed in Morocco. Previous works using molecular markers (Internal Transcribed Spacer 2 rDNA and Cytochrome B mtDNA) hypothesized existence multiple closely related populations sand fly species (cryptic species) that would exhibit distinct vectorial capacities. This work studies morphotypic diversity traditional geometric morphometry analyses...
