Abstract excerpt

Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1894), is an invasive mosquito of growing public health importance in the Americas, yet its genetic diversity and invasion dynamics remain unexplored in several Central American countries including Honduras. This study provides the first genetic characterization of Ae. albopictus from Honduras by analyzing specimens collected from five municipalities using a multilocus...
