  • Poland - Tiger mosquito detected for the first time? Mediareport - Probably not

    The tiger mosquito has appeared in Poland


    Yesterday, 27 June

    The tiger mosquito, also known as the Asian, appeared in Poland. The insect was noticed already in May in Katowice by Dr. Antoni Winiarski, a retired employee of the University of Silesia - reports Dziennik Zachodni.




    The tiger mosquito, also known as the Asian, naturally occurs on the territory of Asia. In Europe, it first appeared in 1975. The latest analyzes show that recently it quickly settles new European countries. Recently appeared, among others at our neighbors - in the Czech Republic.
    The first documented presence of an insect in Poland
    According to Dr Antoni Winiarski, a retired employee of the University of Silesia, the tiger mosquito also reached Poland, specifically to Katowice. The scientist wrote about it in a letter to the editor of Dziennik Zachodni (Dziennik Zachodni):
    "On May 28, 2019, I photographed a tiger mosquito in Katowice at Grodowa Street near garages and it is the first documented evidence of the presence of this insect in Poland, tiger mosquitoes were greeting me as I drove a car to the garage.
    Dr Winiarski also sent the "Dziennik Zachodnie" a photo of a tiger mosquito.

    The tiger mosquito appeared in Katowice? Researchers have doubts



    june 27, 2019

    Information about the appearance of a tiger mosquito in Katowice caused an avalanche of comments on the Internet. A photo of an insect sent to us by dr. Antoni Winiarski, a retired employee of the University of Silesia, although of very good quality, not everyone is convinced that this species of mosquito actually appeared in Poland. Doubts, among others, dr Andrzej Woźnica from the University of Life Sciences in Wrocław.

    Informacja o pojawieniu się komara tygrysiego w Katowicach wywołała lawinę komentarzy w internecie. Zdjęcie owada nadesłane nam przez dr. Antoniego Winiarskiego, emerytowanego pracownika Uniwersytetu Śląskiego, choć bardzo dobrej jakości, nie wszystkich przekonuje o tym, że ten gatunek komara rzeczywiście pojawił się w Polsce. Wątpliwości zgłasza m.in. dr Andrzej Woźnica z Uniwersytetu Przyrodniczego we Wrocławiu.
