This is concerning news. “The potentially deadly Japanese encephalitis virus has been found in mosquitoes in Brisbane for the first time” abc.net.au/news/2025-03-16/j… 🦟

Got some research on mosquitoes and/or arboviruses to share? The Mosquito Control Association of Australia and Arbovirus Research in Australia symposium is on 24-28 August 2025 in Torquay, Victoria, Australia. Hope to see you there! mcaaconference.com.au/call-f… #MCAA2025

It’s been a while since I’ve visited this site in Hammondville. During the 2019-2020 summer, this site was completely burnt out (many black trunks remain). Back then, we found mosquito eggs survived the fire and hatched shortly after when tides flooded the site!

NEW PREPRINT on Aedes vigilax - the Australian saltmarsh mosquito.
This mosquito can fly great distances, but there's more to this than initially meets the eye

With evidence of both Japanese encephalitis and Murray Valley encephalitis viruses circulating in NSW, @NSWHealth reminds those living in (or visiting) western regions of the state to avoid mosquito bites health.nsw.gov.au/news/Pages… #keepmozziesaway 🦟

Big jump in activity of saltmarsh mosquitoes (Aedes vigilax) around coastal wetlands over recent days. If you’re heading out camping, bushwalking, fishing (or just celebrating NYE), make sure you pack some insect repellent! 🦟

Birds not crossing the Great Dividing Range (“Extensive Tracking of Nomadic Waterbird Movements Reveals an Inland Flyway” doi.org/10.1002/ece3.70668), this paper may also provide clues as to how the risks of some mosquito-borne pathogens (like MVEV, JEV) aren’t seen on the coast!

get this book. read it. remember Refaat. emulate his courage and commitment to life, liberation, and students. act. stand for something beyond your own life.
how dearly I miss you, @itranslate123.
One year to the day since the enemy took dear Refaat from us, I can only recommend that you all buy his book (the profits all go to his family) –– out now from @orbooks.
So far I have been unable to make it past @susanabulhawa's forward intact
