“…In the European area of Russia, antibodies in humans and in bovine sera have been found in the Saratov province [64,65] and in the estuary of Kuban River [66]. Molecular analysis of BUNV have demonstrated that the strains isolated in Russia grouped into a European cluster together with isolates from Ukraine and the Czech Republic, and they were distinct to Asian and African strains [67,68]. While serological data indicate that BUNV is endemic in different regions of EE [8], a broader geographical distribution of BUNV remains without confirmation by virus isolation.…”

Eastern Europe (EE) has been severely affected by mosquito-borne viruses (moboviruses). In this review, we summarize the epidemiology of moboviruses, with particular attention to West Nile virus (WNV). The study of WNV human cases in EE between 2010 and 2016, revealed that the epidemiology of WNV in EE is complex with the combination of introduction of different WNV strains from lineages 1 and 2, and the establishment of endemic cycles. We found a positive correlation between the risk of WNV re-emergence in an area and the number of human cases reported in the previous year. We also report the main ecological and biological characteristics of the key mosquito species vectors of moboviruses. Recent expansion of invasive mosquito species in EE, mainly Aedes albopictus but also Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus, may result in new scenarios with an increased risk of transmission of moboviruses. Main gaps of knowledge in relation to moboviruses and their vectors in EE are identified. Understanding the epidemiology of moboviruses in EE is essential for the improvement of their surveillance and the control of the diseases they cause.

“…Batai virus and the Olyka strain have been isolated from mosquitoes in Ukraine, specifically from Anopheles maculipennis s.l. (Vinograd et al 1973 , Terekhin et al 2010 ). Lozyns'kyĭ and Vynohrad (1998) reported serological evidence suggesting the presence of Inko and snowshoe hare virus.…”

For effective control of vector-borne diseases and control of nuisance-biting insects, it is important to know which species are present and their relative abundance. In this study, we report data from a State-supported mosquito surveillance program in Kyiv, Ukraine's capital city. The surveillance identified 29 different species: 24 Culicines and 5 Anopheline species. Culicine mosquitoes included 17 in the genus Aedes, 3 Culex, 3 Culiseta, and 1 Mansonia species. The relative abundance of each genera was consistent in years 2014, 2015, and 2016; namely Aedes>Culex>Anopheles. In 2017, Aedes and Culex mosquitoes were approximately the same, predominating over Anopheles. A declining trend in the numbers of mosquitoes collected from 2013 to 2017 has not only several potential explanations, including increased urbanization and more effective control, but also may reflect changes in surveillance efforts.
