With flying colors: Top entomology students honored with wasp species named after them
(Pensoft Publishers) The highly divergent parasitic wasps have long been causing headaches to scientists. At one point, taxonomists began using some genera as 'dumping grounds for unplaced members' simply to organize the species. Two entomologists have recently addressed one such issue by describing 10 new genera and even more new species in the open-access journal ZooKeys. Two of the new species are named after excellent entomology students and one bears the name of a mythological monster.

Morphology and DNA barcoding reveal three species in one: description of Culicoides cryptipulicaris sp. nov. and Culicoides quasipulicaris sp. nov. in the subgenus Culicoides
Abstract Species of the genus Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are well known for their importance in the field of medical and veterinary entomology. Culicoides spp. transmit a wide variety of pathogens, primarily viruses that affect animals and humans. In Europe, the most economically important disease transmitted by Culicoides is bluetongue (BT). Culicoides spp. have been recently involved as primary vectors for Schmallenberg disease. The taxonomy within the subgenus Culicoides has been historically difficult and reorganizations have been proposed regularly. The subgenus Culicoides includes species that are consider...

Basic research and applied science in forensic entomology
Forensic entomology (FE) focuses mainly on human cadavers colonized by insects [1]. The use of arthropods as a tool in criminal investigations is essentially related to the estimation of the minimum time elapsed since death (also referred as minimum post-mortem interval or minPMI) based on the assumption that insects arrive on the body shortly after death [2]. However, the techniques devised recently in FE can allow experts in the field to collect strong entomological evidence in legal proceedings not strictly related to PMI [3].

Dengue fever : Symptoms, epidemiology, entomology, pathogen diagnosis and prevention.
Authors: Wiemer D, Frickmann H, Krüger A Abstract Dengue infections are among the most frequent causes of febrile disease in tropical climates. Infections are caused by a flavivirus transmitted by the Aedes mosquito. Aedes aegypti mosquitos are the main transmitters of Dengue viruses. Since these insects are both diurnal and container breeders, particular prevention and control measures are required. Symptom severity varies and can range from a mild, flu-like clinical picture to severe hemorrhage and shock. The most common symptoms experienced by travelers include fever, muscular pain, headaches and skin rash. Dep...
