The mosquito is classified as a stinging insect and flying insect. The species has a unique set of eyes, which consists of small visual units known as “ommatidia”. The compound eyes allow the mosquito to view its surrounding in three-dimensional form.
Mosquitoes have two wings, two antennas, and a banded abdomen. The legs are elbow-shaped, with a tibia, tarsus, and femur. The body is divided into three sections, including the abdomen (lower section), thorax (mid-section), and head (top section).
Mosquito-Borne Illnesses
Mosquitoes spread diseases through bites, transferring bacterium to the victim’s bloodstream. These “blood-suckers” spread a broad range of illnesses, including the Zika virus, plague, malaria, West Nile virus, yellow fever, chikungunya, and dengue.
Mosquito-borne illnesses are dangerous to pregnant women and their fetuses. The bite of a mosquito infected with the Zika virus bites the mother. The virus spreads to the mother who spreads the virus to her unborn fetus. The unborn fetus may develop microcephaly, a condition characterized by a smaller than normal head.
