Abstract

Illustrated keys for the identification of fourth-instar larvae and adult females of seven genera of mosquitoes are presented, along with the geographic distribution of each species and the known immature habitats. Sixty-seven mosquito species belonging to genera Aedeomyia, Ficalbia, Mimomyia, Hodgesia, Coquillettidia, Mansonia, and Uranotaenia are recognized in Thailand. Hodgesia bailyi and Uranotaenia (Pfc.) abstrusa are included as new country records, and four new undescribed species in the subgenus Uranotaenia are reported.
