Biting Diptera-host network structure varies with anthropogenic landscape modification

2026-05-06

Abstract excerpt

1. Rapid and ongoing anthropogenic habitat modification has the potential to alter the species composition, abundance and activity of biting insect communities, which are important disease vectors. The resulting changes in the network of interactions between biting insects and their hosts have implications for the transmission of vector-borne pathogens. 2. We used DNA metabarcoding of Diptera blood meals to docume...
