Culicine mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) recorded from the province of Mozambique (Portuguese East Africa) and their relationship to arthropod-borne viruses.

Abstract

Edwards ( 1941) listed 22 species of culicine mosquitoes from the Province of Mocambique (Portuguese East Africa), deriving these records from the scanty literature and study of the few small collec+ tions available up to that time (Sant’ Anna, 1905; Seguy, 1959). In the same year de Meillon and Rebel0 ( 194 1) published additional records obtained incidentally during an anopheline survey of the country. This paper added 20 species to Edwards’ list, bringing the known fauna to 42. Pereira (1946a, 1946b) during further work with anophelines
