Abstract

ABSTRACT: Based on historical and recent records, an updated list of 244 nominal species and three undescribed mosquitoes from Mexico is presented. Since 1990, 15 species have been recorded for the first time in Mexico: Aedes guatemala, Ae. brelandi, Ae. insolitus, Ae. melanimon, Ae. albopictus, Culex daumastocampa, Cx. metempsytus, Cx. erethyzonfer, Culiseta melanura, Limatus asulleptus, Sabethes gymnothorax, Trichoprosopon pallidiventer, Toxorhynchites moctezuma, Uranotaenia socialis, and Wyeomyia chalcocephala. Five species were discovered and described: Ae. amaterui, Ae. lewnielseni, Cx. diamphidius, Shannoniana huasteca, and Tr. mixtli. Three species were discovered without yet describing or naming them: Ae. (Protomacleaya) sp. 1, Ae. (Ochlerotatus) sp. 2, and Wyeomyia sp. 3. Five species had been removed from the Mexican mosquito fauna: Ae. stigmaticus, Cx. imitator, Onirion personatum, Sa. tarsopus, and Tx. theobaldi. With the intention of updating the checklist of the mosquito species in Mexico, historical and recent species records were reviewed, as well as the review of entomological collections, resulting in the confirmation of the presence in Mexico of Ae. thelcter, Cs. impatiens, and Orthopodomyia alba. Morphological and molecular evidence confirms the presence of Wy. jocosa, while Anopheles atropos, Psorophora confinnis, Cx. jenningsi, Mansonia indubitans, Tr. pallidiventer, and Tr. soaresi are removed from the Mexican mosquito fauna.

墨西哥蚊子（双翅目：Culicidae）最新清单

ABSTRACT: 根据历史和最近的记录，介绍了墨西哥的 244 个标称物种和 3 个未被描述的蚊子的最新清单。自 1990 年以来，墨西哥首次记录了 15 个物种：Ae. melanimon, Ae. albopictus, Culex daumastocampa, Cx. metempsytus, Cx.erethyzonfer、Culiseta melanura、Limatus asulleptus、Sabethes gymnothorax、Trichoprosopon pallidiventer、Toxorhynchites moctezuma、Uranotaenia socialis 和 Wyeomyia chalcocephala。发现并描述了五个物种：Ae. amaterui、Ae. lewnielseni、Cx. diamphidius、Shannoniana huasteca 和 Tr. mixtli。发现的三个物种尚未描述或命名：Ae.（Protomacleaya）sp.1、Ae.（Ochlerotatus）sp.2 和 Wyeomyia sp.3。从墨西哥蚊子动物群中删除了五个物种：Ae.stigmaticus、Cx. imitator、Onirion personatum、Sa. tarsopus 和 Tx. theobaldi。为了更新墨西哥的蚊子物种清单，对历史和最近的物种记录进行了审查，并对昆虫学收藏品进行了审查，结果证实了 Ae. thelcter、Cs. impatiens 和 Orthopodomyia alba 存在于墨西哥。形态学和分子证据证实了 Wy. jocosa 的存在，而 Anopheles atropos、Psorophora confinnis、Cx. jenningsi、Mansonia indubitans、Tr. pallidiventer 和 Tr. soaresi 则从墨西哥蚊虫动物群中删除。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Vector Ecology is an international journal published by the Society for Vector Ecology. It is concerned with all aspects of the biology, ecology, and control of arthropod and vertebrate vectors and the interrelationships between the vectors and the agents of disease that they transmit. The journal publishes original research articles and scientific notes, as well as comprehensive reviews of vector biology based on presentations at Society meetings. All papers are reviewed by at least two qualified scientists who recommend their suitability for publication. Acceptance of manuscripts is based on their scientific merit and is the final decision of the editor, but these decisions may be appealed to the editorial board. The journal began publishing in 1974 and now publishes on-line only.
