  abstract = {{T}he {A}sian tiger mosquito, {A}edes albopictus ({S}kuse, 1894), is an invasive species that can be found on all continents. {T}he species, originally considered a secondary vector of viruses such as {D}engue viruses, has recently been suggested to play a role in the transmission of {C}hikungunya virus in several countries bordering the {I}ndian {O}cean, {C}entral {A}frica and {E}urope. {H}ere we review the current geographic range and the relevant biological traits of {A}. albopictus in order to explain its rapid spread. {W}e examine and discuss recent changes in its role as a vector, particularly in the transmission of arboviruses, and its importance in the current and future emergence of pathogens. {F}inally, we report conventional and innovative ways to control {A}. albopictus.},
