  abstract = {{M}osquitoes are the main vectors of pathogens affecting wild animals, livestock and humans. {H}ere, we used molecular tools to assess the local circulation of filarial parasites in mosquitoes collected during 2013 from natural, rural and urban habitats from southern {S}pain. {W}e screened parasites in 22,791 female mosquitoes of the genera {A}edes, {C}ulex and {C}uliseta. {F}ilarial worms were only detected in two mosquito pools. {A}n {A}e. caspius pool was positive for {S}etaria equina and an unidentified worm related to {O}nchocerca was detected in a {C}x. pipiens pool. {N}one of the mosquito pools were positive for {D}irofilaria. {T}hese results underlay the role of {A}e. caspius in the transmission of {S}etaria parasites among livestock and/or wildlife to humans in southern {S}pain.},
