Contribution to mosquito (Diptera: Culicidae) fauna of Sakarya province and the first record of the invasive vector Aedes albopictus (Skuse, 1894) for Kocaeli province

Abstract

Mosquitoes are temporary external parasites that suck blood and which can be disease carriers for humans and many animals in nature. In this study, the material obtained as a result of field studies carried out in Adapazarı and Söğütlü districts of Sakarya province and İzmit district of Kocaeli province between February 2018 and August 2018 were evaluated. 9 mosquito species were identified from Sakarya province. Five of these species [Anopheles plumbeus Stephens, 1828, Aedes geniculatus (Olivier, 1791), Ae. rusticus (Rossi, 1790), Ae. vexans (Meigen, 1830), Culiseta longiareolata (Macquart, 1838)] are new species for mosquito fauna in Sakarya province. The invasive species Ae. albopictus (Skuse, 1894) has been recorded for the first time from Kocaeli province and this record is the first record for Culicidae family in Kocaeli.
