Lynch Arribalzaga, 1891

Ochlerotatus is a genus of mosquito. Until 2000, it was ranked as a subgenus of Aedes, but after Reinert's work, the clade was upgraded to the level of a genus.[1] This change has resulted in the renaming of many subgenus species, and many aedini-related taxa are undergoing taxonomic revisions. Some authors are still using traditional taxonomic names in their publications.

Taxonomy

Ochlerotatus was originally established as a genus in 1891.[2] In 1917, a researcher by the name of Edwards transferred it to the aedine subgenus; however, as of 2000, Ochlerotatus has resumed its role as a genus (a revision made by Reinhert, due to common traits in genitalia).[3] Based on taxonomic characteristics, many species and subgenera of Aedes mosquitoes have been transferred to the Ochlerotatus genus.[3]

After a contentious worldwide debate regarding the effect the taxonomic changes would have on names established over decades of work in scientific, government, and lay communities,[4][5][6] many scientists and others affected by the change espoused the continued use of the previously established names.[7][8] As of 2016, the previously established names are supported by and accepted for publication in many scientific journals.[9][|permanent dead link|dead link}}]
