Aedes EGYPTIAN (also known as the tiger mosquito) is a genus of mosquitoes originally found in tropical and subtropical zones, but now found on all continents except Antarctica. Some species have been spread by human activity: Aedes albopictus, a particularly invasive species, was spread to the Americas, including the United States, in the 1980s, by the used-tire trade.[2] • AedesAedes aegyptiScientific classificationDomain:EukaryotaKingdom:AnimaliaPhylum:ArthropodaClass:InsectaOrder:DipteraFamily:CulicidaeTribe:AediniGenus:Aedes • Meigen, 1818Type speciesAedes cinereus • Meigen, 1818 • Species • List of Aedes species • First described and named by German entomologist Johann Wilhelm Meigen in 1818, the generic name comes from the Ancient Greek ἀηδής, aēdēs, meaning 'unpleasant' or 'odious'. The type species for Aedes is Aedes cinereus.[3] • Systematics and phylogeny • edit • Aedes (Stegomyia) pia, described in 2013.[4] • The genus was named by Johann Wilhelm Meigen in 1818. The generic name comes from the Ancient Greek ἀηδής, aēdēs, meaning 'unpleasant'[5] or 'odious'. • As historically defined, the genus contains more than 950 species (see the list of Aedes species). The genus has been divided into several subgenera (Aedes, Diceromyia, Finlaya, Stegomyia, etc.), most of which have been recently treated by some authorities as full genera.[6] The classification was revised in 2009.[7] • Characteristics • edit • Aedes mosquitoes are visually distinctive because they have noticeable black and white markings on their bodies and legs. Unlike most other mosquitoes, they are active and bite only during the daytime. The peak biting periods are early in the morning and in the evening before dusk.[8][9] • Direct children of this genus • edit • The genus contains 28 species that are not placed in a further subgenus:[10] • Aedes daliensis (Taylor, 1916) • Aedes mallochi Taylor, 1944 • Children with uncertain position • edit • Aedes alticola Bonne Wepster, 1948 • Aedes auronitens Edwards, 1922 • Aedes australiensis (Theobald, 1910) • Aedes biocellatus (Taylor, 1914) • Aedes britteni Marks and Hodgkin, 1958 • Aedes candidoscutellum Marks, 1947 • Aedes crossi Lien, 1967 • Aedes eatoni (Edwards, 1916) • Aedes gracilelineatus Bonne-Wepster, 1937 • Aedes keefei King and Hoogstraal, 1946 • Aedes peipingensis Feng, 1938 • Aedes koreicoides Sasa, Kano and Hayashi, 1950 • Aedes lauriei King and Hoogstraal, 1946 • Aedes monocellatus Marks, 1948 • Aedes oreophilus (Edwards, 1916) • Aedes plagosus Marks, 1959 • Aedes quasirubithorax (Theobald, 1910) • Aedes roai Belkin, 1962 • Aedes rubiginosus Belkin, 1962 • Aedes sintoni (Barraud, 1924) • Aedes stanleyi Peters, 1963 • Aedes subauridorsum Marks, 1948 • Aedes toxopeusi Bonne-Wepster, 1948 • Aedes tsiliensis King and Hoogstraal, 1946 • Aedes versicolor (Barraud, 1924) • Aedes wasselli Marks, 1947 • Aedes annuliventris Blanchard, 1852 • As disease vectors • edit • Members of the genus Aedes are known vectors for numerous viral infections, including dengue fever, yellow fever, the Zika virus,[11] and chikungunya, which are transmitted by species in the subgenus Stegomyia, and by A. aegypti and A. albopictus.[12] Infections with these viruses are typically accompanied by a fever, and in some cases, encephalitis, which can lead to death. A vaccine to provide protection from yellow fever exists, and measures to prevent mosquito bites include insecticides such as DDT, mosquito traps, insect repellents, mosquito nets, and pest control using genetically modified insects.[13] In Polynesia, the species Aedes polynesiensis is responsible for the transmission of human lymphatic filariasis. • #animal #biodiversity #insects #nature #wildlife #animalwelfareactivist #biodiversityconservation #conservation #ecology
