Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) View in CoL
Linnaeus, C. (1762) Zweyter Theil, enthalt Beschreibungen verschiedener wichtiger Naturalien. pp. 267-606. In: Hasselquist. D.F. Reise nach Palt'istina in den Jahren von 1749 his 1752. Rostock, Germany. 606 pp.
Latin, Aegyptus = Egypt
The brief description of this species in Latin only occurs on page 470 as:
CXXI CULEX lEGYPTI articulatiombus candidis (with bright movements)
Locus, lEgyptus, Culice communi Iarior (Location, Egypt, mer than the common mosquito)
Linnaeus thus says nothing about the appearance of this species and his observation could apply to most species.
