In recent decades, climate change and globalization have promoted mosquito-borne diseases\u2019 (MBDs) geographic expansion to new areas, such as North African countries, where some of these MBDs were unusual or even unknown. In this review, we summarize the latest data on mosquito vector species distribution and MBDs affecting both human and animals in North Africa, in order to better understand the risks associated with the introduction of new invasive mosquito species such as Aedes albopictus. Currently, 26 mosquito species confirmed as pathogen vectors occur in North Africa, including Aedes (five species), Culex (eight species), Culiseta (one species) and Anopheles (12 species). These 26 species are involved in the circulation of seven MBDs in North Africa, including two parasitic infections (malaria and filariasis) and five viral infections (WNV, RVF, DENV, SINV and USUV). No bacterial diseases have been reported so far in this area. This review may guide research studies to fill the data gaps, as well as helping with developing effective vector surveillance and controlling strategies by concerned institutions in different involved countries, leading to cooperative and coordinate vector control measures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/insects13100962","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]],"date-time":"2022-10-20T22:49:46Z","timestamp":1666306186000},"page":"962","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":78,"title":["Mosquito Vectors (Diptera: Culicidae) and Mosquito-Borne Diseases in North Africa"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1060-0152","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amira","family":"Nebbak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche Scientifique et Technique en Analyses Physico-Chimiques (CRAPC), BP 384, Zone Industrielle, Bou-Ismail 42004, Algeria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0490-5774","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lionel","family":"Almeras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Aix Marseille University, IRD, AP-HM, SSA, VITROME, 13005 Marseille, France"},{"name":"Unit\u00e9 Parasitologie et Entomologie, D\u00e9partement Microbiologie et Maladies Infectieuses, Institut de Recherche Biom\u00e9dicale des Arm\u00e9es, 19-21 Boulevard Jean Moulin, 13005 Marseille, France"},{"name":"IHU-M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e Infection, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philippe","family":"Parola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Aix Marseille University, IRD, AP-HM, SSA, VITROME, 13005 Marseille, France"},{"name":"IHU-M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e Infection, 13005 Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1608-6473","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Idir","family":"Bitam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Aix Marseille University, IRD, AP-HM, SSA, VITROME, 13005 Marseille, France"},{"name":"\u00c9cole Sup\u00e9rieure en Sciences de l\u2019Aliment et des Industries Agroalimentaire d\u2019Alger, Oued Smar 16059, Algeria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"395","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev-med-050715-105122","article-title":"Zika, Chikungunya, and Other Emerging Vector-Borne Viral Diseases","volume":"69","author":"Weaver","year":"2017","journal-title":"Annu.
