Mosquitoes (Culicidae)

  • Chapter

Abstract

The mosquitoes have perhaps attained greater public notoriety than any other arthropods. They include the only organisms able to transmit human malaria, and apart from carrying this and other diseases are almost unrivalled as irritating biting pests. All mosquitoes belong to the family Culicidae, which at present contains about 3450 species and subspecies. These are documented in world catalogues (see Ward, 1992) which are updated every few years. Superficially the adults resemble certain other Nematocera, especially the Chironomidae, Dixidae and Chaoboridae, which like mosquitoes have aquatic immature stages. Mosquitoes, however, are readily distinguished from such similar looking flies by their conspicuous forwardly projecting proboscis and scales on the wing veins.
