Figures & data
Table 1. List of the 19 key species of mosquito vectors of medically important pathogens in Europe following Wilkerson et al. [Citation6], including the total number of pathogens transmitted per species.
Figure 1. Alluvial plot showing mosquito and pathogen networks for mosquito species of medical importance in Europe following Wilkerson et al. [Citation6]. The flow lines represent the different relationships between mosquito species and the pathogens they transmit. In this plot, the left column represents vector species, while the right column represents pathogen identity, which are embedded in the flow of the plot. Different colours represent the mosquito genus where Aedes are shown in red, Anopheles in green, and Culex in blue. The width of the bands connecting the categories reflects the relative number of observations moving in the network.
Note: The pathogen species can be repeated in the right column, reflecting the fact that different vector species can transmit the same pathogen. For better visualisation, only labels of mosquitoes and pathogens with N > 3 items are shown.
