Difference between Arbovirus and Culex

Arbovirus vs. Culex

Arbovirus is an informal name used to refer to any viruses that are transmitted by arthropod vectors. Culex is a genus of mosquitoes, several species of which serve as vectors of one or more important diseases of birds, humans, and other animals.

Similarities between Arbovirus and Culex

Arbovirus and Culex have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Arthropod, Japanese encephalitis, Mosquito, Saint Louis encephalitis, Vector (epidemiology), West Nile virus, Zika virus.

Arthropod

An arthropod (from Greek ἄρθρον arthron, "joint" and πούς pous, "foot") is an invertebrate animal having an exoskeleton (external skeleton), a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages.
