Several species such as Aedes albopictus, Ae. japonicus and Ae. koreicus were introduced, built populations, and expanded their distribution into new regions. The introduction and establishment of AIMs in Europe is a risk to public health, due to the ability of these mosquitoes to transmit diverse pathogens of vector-borne diseases. The objective of this manuscript is to review knowledge of pathways associated with the introduction and dispersal of AIMs in Europe. The identification of pathways for introduction of AIMs is critical to decide on surveillance strategies needed to reduce the risk and control future introductions. Four main routes are identified and discussed: the passive transport of AIMs via (1) the trade of used tyres, (2) the trade of Lucky bamboo plant cuttings, (3) vehicles (traffic by road, airplanes, and sea), as well as (4) the active natural dispersal of AIMs. We conclude that the trade of used tyres remains the main pathway for long distance transportation and introduction of AIMs into and within Europe. Furthermore, passive transport by road in ground vehicles (e.g. car, truck) represents the major driving force for dispersion from already established populations.

Abstract: Six gel-and five water-transported Dracaena braunii shipments originating from the South coast of China were screened for exotic mosquito species during a surveillance project on exotic vectors in Belgium. In November 2013, a live Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus larva was detected in a gel substrate. This is the first direct evidence of the importation of Ae. albopictus on gel-transported Lucky bamboo. It also confirms that the importation risk of Ae. albopictus by transport of ornamental bamboo plants remains. In addition to the registration of appropriate biocides, a structured and permanent surveillance programme is needed in Belgium to allow for the early detection of invasive mosquito species and the timely implementation of control measures.
