5 The journey of Aedes albopictus (Asian Tiger Mosquito) which is considered capable to transmit more than 20 diseases Eggs of Aedes albopictus are laid along the side of artificial or manmade containers and will hatch when water levels rise above the location of the egg, submerging it Exports from Japan to 137 other countries Used tires Lucky bamboo ( lucky not for us but for the mosquito)

6 Aedes albopictus Travelling around the world in 15 years

7 Suitability parameters according to ECDC guidelines March - October Oviposition Larvae feeding Τ>22 ο C Emerging from pupae Τ>18 ο C Egg hatching Τ>13 ο C Water >10mm

8 Aedes albopictus Over % of Italy s area & over 5% of Greece s area

9 Suitability difference for Aedes aegypti for the period

10 LIFE CONOPS Monitoring devices Total number of Monitoring Devices: 12 (Greece 8, Italy 4)

11 LIFE CONOPS Ovitraps Total number of ovitraps: >150

13 Aim: Vector competence of a Greek strain of Aedes albopictus for the mutated chikungunya virus (CHIKV E1A226V) and for the dengue 2 virus (DENV 2) Results: Laboratory trials confirmed the vector competence of the Greek strain either for CHIKV E1A226V or for DENV 2. The rate of infection was similar to those ones measured for an Ae. albopictus strain collected in Camargue (France) and for an Italian strain collected in Romagna after the chikungunya outbreak occurred in Bellini et al., Vector Biol J (2016)
