Rediscovering the mosquito fauna (Diptera: Culicidae) of Estonia: an annotated checklist with distribution maps and DNA evidence Kirik, Heli Tummeleht, Lea Kurina, Olavi Zootaxa 2022 2022-02-03 5094 2 261 287 89VYQ Dyar & Knab, 1907 Dyar & Knab 1907 [193,777,1878,1905] Insecta Culicidae Aedes Animalia Diptera 8 269 Arthropoda species riparius Ochlerotatus   ( Fig. 4B)  Published source: Remm (1957: 153).   Voucher material:None.   Comment:  Aedes ripariusbelongs to the Ae. annulipesgroup and can be difficult to identify. A specimen corresponding to morphologically to Ae. ripariuswas found during this study, but DNA barcoding identified it as Ae. annulipes/  cantans. One male, four femalesand one larvaof Ae. ripariushave previously been reported from Estonia( Remm 1957), but these individuals have not been preserved and their identification cannot be verified.  Aedes ripariushas been found in Lithuania( Pakalniškis et al.2000), Latvia( Spungis 2000), provinces in Northwestern Russiaadjacent to Estonia( Khalin & Aibulatov 2020), Finland( Culverwell 2018; Culverwell et al. 2021) and Sweden( Lundström et al.2013); consequently, Ae. ripariusis likely present in Estoniaas well.
