A total of 23 named species, known in all stages, and 4 unnamed forms, known by 1 or more females, is treated. In all, 22,235 specimens, 4,164 males, 4,967 females, 7,542 larvae, 5,562 pupae and 2,424 individual rearings (1,497 larval, 767 pupal, 160 incomplete) have been examined. The methods of study and presentation, as well as the terminology and ab- breviations, follow, in general, Belkin (1962); a few additional terms for the meso- scutal markings and details of the genitalia follow Berlin (1969) and Schick (1970a), respectively. I am indebted to John N. Belkin for reading the manuscript and suggesting certain improvements; Harold C. Chapman, George B. Craig, Jr., Pedro Galindo, Kenneth L. Knight, Lewis T. Nielsen, George F. O'Meara, L.L. Pechuman, John F. Reinert, Paul L. Rice, Alan Stone, Floyd G. Werner, and Michael J. Zavortink for loans of museum specimens or gifts of live mosquitoes; Willis W. Wirth for information on the type of Finlaya nigra; Abdiel J. Adames, J. Hal Arnell, Lewis T. Nielsen and Robert X. Schick for stimulating discussions; Sandra J. Heinemann and William A. Powder for help in the preparation and rearing of specimens; Sharon Burmeister, L. Margaret Kowalczyk and Nancy L. Martsch for prepara- tion of many of the preliminary drawings and L. Margaret Kowalczyk for prep- aration of all of the final illustrations; Claire M. Price for typing a portion of the preliminary draft; and, finally, Caryle Stallard for typing the remainder of the preliminary draft, providing editorial assistance and preparing the text copy for lithoprinting. SYSTEMATICS I am removing all New World Aedes that have been placed in the subgenus Finlaya from that subgenus and assigning them to other subgenera or genera, as follows: the Triseriatus, Zoosophus, Kompi and Knabi Groups treated in the pres- ent paper and the Terrens Group treated by Schick (1970a,b) are placed into the subgenus Protomacleaya of Aedes; ramirezi and mediovittatus are placed into the monotypic subgenera Aztecaedes and Gymnometopa of Aedes, respectively; the Atropalpus and Fluviatilis Groups are placed into the subgenus Ochlerotatus of Aedes; scutellalbum and upatensis

Knowledge about transmission remains incomplete, especially concerning potential transmission in geographic areas in which it has not yet been introduced. To identify unknown vectors of Zika, we developed a data-driven model linking vector species and the Zika virus via vector-virus trait combinations that confer a propensity toward associations in an ecological network connecting flaviviruses and their mosquito vectors. Our model predicts that thirty-five species may be able to transmit the virus, seven of which are found in the continental United States, including Culex quinquefasciatus and Cx. pipiens. We suggest that empirical studies prioritize these species to confirm predictions of vector competence, enabling the correct identification of populations at risk for transmission within the United States. *For correspondence: mvevans@ DOI: 10.7554/eLife.22053.001 uga.edu Competing interests: The authors declare that no competing interests exist.

El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la presencia de especies de mosquitos y su distribución en la Comarca Lagunera del estado de Durango, México. Método: Entre agosto y noviembre de 2018 fueron colectados mosquitos adultos utilizando aspiradores de campo (Insectzookas) en diferentes sitios de reposo en cuatro municipios. También se tomaron muestras de los hábitats acuáticos para la colecta de etapas inmaduras. Los especímenes adultos se mataron utilizando cámaras letales con vapores de trietilamina, mientras que las larvas y las pupas se almacenaron en tubos individuales para obtener los estadios adultos y las exuvias asociadas.

  • And Haemagogus Mosquitoes in Southern Brazil (Diptera: Culicidae)*
    BITING ACTIVITY OF AEDES SCAPULARIS (RONDANI) AND HAEMAGOGUS MOSQUITOES IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL (DIPTERA: CULICIDAE)* Oswaldo Paulo Forattini** Almério de Castro Gomes** FORATTINI, O. P. & GOMES, A. de C. Biting activity of Aedes scapularis (Rondani) and Haemagogus mosquitoes in Southern Brazil (Diptera: Culicidae). Rev. Saúde públ., S. Paulo, 22:84-93, 1988. ABSTRACT: The biting activity of a population of Aedes scapularis (Rondani), Hae- magogus capricornii Lutz and Hg. leucocelaenus (Dyar and Shannon) in Southern Brazil was studied between March 1980 and April 1983. Data were obtained with 25-hour human bait catches in three areas with patchy residual forests, named "Jacaré-Pepira", "Lupo" Farm, and "Sta. Helena" Farm, in the highland region of S. Paulo State (Brazil). Data obtained on Ae. scapularis were compared with those formerly gathered in the "Ribeira'' Valley lowlands, and were similar, except in the "Lupo" Farm study area, where a pre- crepuscular peak was observed, not recorded at the "Jacaré-Pepira" site or in the "Ribeira" Valley. In all the areas this mosquito showed diurnal and nocturnal activity, but was most active during the evening crepuscular period. These observations support the hypo- thesis about the successful adaptation of Ae. scapularis to man-made environments and have epidemiological implications that arise from it. As for Haemagogus, results obtained on the "Lupo" and "Sta. Helena" regions agree with previous data obtained in several other regions and show its diurnal activity. The proximity of "Lupo" Farm, where Hg. capricornii and Hg. leucocelaenus showed considerable activity, to "Araraquara" city where Aedes aegypti was recently found, raises some epidemiological considerations about the possibility of urban yellow fever resurgence.
