Considered to be a secondary vector, Ae. albopictus (Skuse), the Asian "tiger mosquito", is involved in the CHIK outbreak in the Indian Ocean in 2005 2006.
For the secondary vector Lutzomyia evansi, there exists only one collection in the state of Chiapas which was without infection [22].
However, the majority of secondary vector infections (i.e. vector-host-vector infections) are always in the same patch, regardless of host mixing.
The observed distribution of LACV infection hot-spots may reflect the spatial distribution of the primary disease vector, Ae. triseriatus, and secondary vector species, as well as the other risk factors that facilitate virus transmission.
It exists as four closely related but antigenically distinct serotypes (DENV-1, -2, -3, and -4), all of which have Aedes aegypti mosquitoes as their primary vector, with A. albopictus as a secondary vector.
Locally, as before, the expected number of secondary host infections resulting from a single infected host (i.e. host-vector-host transmission) will not necessarily be the same as the expected number of secondary vector infections resulting from a single infected vector (vector-host-vector transmission).

Larviciding substantially suppressed annual mean densities of both secondary vectors in Dar es Salaam, namely An. funestus and An.
melas, were locally caught in the study area and had been reported to participate to malaria transmission as secondary vectors [44].
It is nevertheless encouraging to qualitatively observe fortuitous temporal targeting of effective control of the primary malaria vector, complemented by successful all-year-round abatement of the secondary vectors.
