Between March 2023 and January 2025, we conducted bimonthly entomological surveys to investigate the ecological patterns of mosquito communities across an urban (Lambar\u00e9n\u00e9), peri-urban and rural gradient in Moyen-Ogoou\u00e9 province, central Gabon. Larvae were sampled with WHO ovitraps, and adult mosquitoes were collected using light traps and Prokopack aspirators. In total, 22,216 mosquitoes were collected, representing 21 species from 8 genera.\n                    <jats:italic>Aedes<\/jats:italic>\n                    (57.2%) and\n                    <jats:italic>Culex.<\/jats:italic>\n                    (23.3%) predominated, alongside\n                    <jats:italic>Mansonia.<\/jats:italic>\n                    (16.3%) and lower abundances of\n                    <jats:italic>Anopheles<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>Lutzia<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>Coquillettidia<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>Uranotaenia<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>Erethmapodites<\/jats:italic>\n                    .

Crucially, the coexistence of dominant vectors with a broad array of less common species shows that arboviral transmission potential in central Gabon is shaped by the entire mosquito community. Biodiversity-wide surveillance, not only of major vectors, is therefore essential for understanding and anticipating arbovirus circulation in this ecologically complex region.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-026-52848-2","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,16]],"date-time":"2026-06-16T12:44:50Z","timestamp":1781613890000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Urban\u2013rural structuring of mosquito assemblages in Moyen-Ogoou\u00e9, Gabon reveals widespread dominance of Aedes albopictus"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"G\u00e9d\u00e9on Prince","family":"Manouana","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fanny","family":"Hellhammer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ynous","family":"Djida","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maminirina Fid\u00e9lis","family":"Ambinintsoa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Moustapha Nzamba","family":"Maloum","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Terence Stravensky","family":"Boussougou-Sambe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Barclaye","family":"Ngossanga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jeannot Fr\u00e9jus","family":"Zinsou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peter G","family":"Kremsner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Julien Zahouli","family":"Bi Zahouli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Steffen","family":"Borrmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefanie C","family":"Becker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ayola Akim","family":"Adegnika","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"52848_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Poungou, N. et al.
