  abstract = {{T}he known arthropod vector species on the {G}ulf of {G}uinea islands belong to orders {D}iptera and {I}xodida. {A}mong the {D}iptera, the family {C}ulicidae (mosquitoes) has the most species, 34 (6 endemic), {C}eratopogonidae has 13 (all in the genus {C}ulicoides), {T}abanidae has 6, and {S}imuliidae has 3 (1 endemic). {I}xodida has only 4 species. {M}ost vector species and associated diseases are shared with mainland {A}frica. {S}ome of these include (1) the human malaria vector {A}nopheles coluzzii, (2) yellow fever and dengue vector {A}edes aegypti, and (3) the spotted fever group rickettsiae and {Q} fever vector {A}mblyomma spp. {H}owever, there is a considerable lack of information on the natural cycles of many vector-borne diseases that might impact local fauna, for which there may be some endemic pathogen lineages. {I}ncreased trade by air and sea should compel authorities to remain vigilant, to keep unwanted vectors and diseases at bay. {E}ntomological diversity data remains scarce for {A}nnobón and for the forested interior of the islands, where future sampling efforts may uncover new endemic species.},
