of mosquitoes originally found in tropical and subtropical

zones, but now found on all continents except Antarctica.

Some species have been spread by human
activity others Aedes albopictus, a most invasive species,
was recently spread to the New World, including the United
States, by the used-tire trade. First described and named
by German entomologist Johann Wilhelm Meigen in 1818,
the generic name comes from the Ancient
Greek ἀηδής, aēdēs, meaning "unpleasant" or "odious".
The type species for Aedes is Aedes cinereus.[2] Some
species of this genus transmit serious diseases,
including dengue fever, yellow fever, the Zika virus,
[3]
and chikungunya. In Polynesia, the species Aedes
polynesiensis is responsible for the transmission of human
lymphatic filariasis.
Aedes can be detected and monitored by ovitraps.
