Abstract
Abstract. The Metropolitan Zone of Mexico Valley (MZMV) in Central Mexico includes the states of Hidalgo, Mexico City, and Mexico. The MZMV is the third most populated area in the OECD. The area is free of vector-borne diseases, and information on vector mosquitoes in the MZMV area in the State of Mexico has not been reported. This study reports mosquito species in the MZMV-State of Mexico from 8 years of larval collection and ovitraps. Species collected in areas not in the MZMV of the State of Mexico are also reported. In the MZMV-State of Mexico, 11,484 mosquitoes from eight species were identified: Ae. aegypti (L.), Ae. albopictus (Skuse), Ae. epactius (Dyar and Knab), Cx. quinquefasciatus (Say), Cx. stigmatosoma (Dyar), Cx. salinarius (Coquillett), Cx. tarsalis (Coquillett) and Cs. particeps (Adams). In non-MZMV areas, 11 species were recorded; Ae. aegypti was most abundant and distributed and Ae. albopictus was at two municipalities. Reported organisms included mosquito vectors of arbovirus, suggesting potential transmission and outbreaks in the MZMV and other areas of the State of Mexico. Resumen.

期刊介绍:
Manuscripts submitted for consideration for publication in the Southwestern Entomologist should report results of entomological research in the southwestern United States or Mexico or should report results of studies on entomological species, relevant to this region, which may be done elsewhere, provided such results are geographically applicable. Manuscripts that report results of routine laboratory or field experiments for which the primary purpose is gathering baseline data or those that report results of a continuous evaluation program such as preliminary pesticide evaluation experiments, species lists with no supporting biological data, or preliminary plant resistance evaluations are not acceptable. However, reports of experiments with insecticides, acaricides, and microbials are acceptable if they are comprehensive and include data related to economics, resistance, toxicology, or other broad subject areas. Bibliographies will not be published in Southwestern Entomologist.
