  abstract = {{A}edes albopictus, a mosquito native to {A}sia, has invaded all five continents during the past three decades. {I}t was reported in central {A}frica in the 2000s, first in {C}ameroon, and, since then, has colonised almost all countries of the region. {T}he species, originally considered a secondary vector of dengue viruses, has been showed to play a major role in transmission of chikungunya virus in numerous countries, including in the central {A}frican region. {W}e review the current spread of {A}e. albopictus in central {A}frica, its larval ecology and its impact on indigenous species such as {A}e. aegypti. {W}e explore the potential of {A}e. albopictus to affect the epidemiology of emerging or re-emerging arboviruses and discuss the conventional means for its control, while emphasizing the importance of data on its susceptibility to insecticides to cope with potential outbreaks.},
