Description:

Text French. Because of the nuisances and epidemics they generate (dengue, Chikungunya virus fever ...), mosquitoes on Reunion Island are regularly in the news, but paradoxically no book has been devoted to them so far. This is now done with this book, which brings together current knowledge on the systematics and biology of species in Reunion and the western Indian Ocean.

Responsible for epidemics affecting the island's population for several centuries, mosquito stands are closely linked to human activities, which have often led to their settlement on these island environments. This book retraces both the stages of the settlement of Reunion island by these insect vectors and the history of the main diseases transmitted on the island. It describes the main means of protection implemented at the institutional and personal level. Elements of morphology and taxonomy make it possible to identify the genera present on the islands of the south-west Indian Ocean and the species of Reunion. The book also presents the taxonomy and biology of each of these species, as well as their medical importance. Distribution cards and illustrated identification keys complete the information.

Educational and richly illustrated, the book is aimed at a wide audience: public health actors, health personnel, residents of Reunion Island as well as students, scientists and technicians, who will be able to enrich their knowledge on the origin, modes of transmission and health management of vector-borne diseases in the western Indian Ocean.

French Description:

Du fait des nuisances et des épidémies qu’ils génèrent (dengue, fièvre à virus Chikungunya…), les moustiques de l’île de La Réunion sont régulièrement à la une de l’actualité, mais paradoxalement aucun ouvrage ne leur a été consacré jusqu’à présent. C’est désormais chose faite avec ce livre, qui rassemble les connaissances actuelles sur la systématique et la biologie des espèces réunionnaises et de l’ouest de l’océan Indien.

Responsables d’épidémies touchant la population de l’île depuis plusieurs siècles, les peuplements de moustiques sont étroitement liés aux activités humaines, qui bien souvent ont entraîné leur installation sur ces milieux insulaires. Ce livre retrace à la fois les étapes du peuplement de La Réunion par ces insectes vecteurs et l’histoire des principales maladies transmises sur l’île. Il décrit les principaux moyens de protection mis en œuvre au niveau institutionnel et personnel. Des éléments de morphologie et de taxonomie permettent d’identifier les genres présents sur les îles du sud-ouest de l’océan Indien et les espèces de La Réunion. L’ouvrage présente également la taxonomie et la biologie de chacune de ces espèces, ainsi que leur importance médicale. Des cartes de répartition et des clés d’identification illustrées complètent l’information.

Pédagogique et richement illustré, l’ouvrage s’adresse à un large public : acteurs de la santé publique, personnels de santé, habitants de La Réunion ainsi qu’étudiants, scientifiques et techniciens, qui pourront enrichir leurs connaissances sur l’origine, les modes de transmission et la gestion sanitaire des maladies à vecteurs dans l’ouest de l’océan Indien.
