Aedes aegypti is an important subtropical vector species and is predicted to have a limited year-round distribution in the southern United States. Collection of the species has not been officially verified in Oklahoma since 1940. Adult mosquitoes were collected in 42 sites across 7 different cities in Oklahoma using 3 different mosquito traps between May and September 2016. Between July and September 2016, 88 Ae. aegypti adults were collected at 18 different sites in 4 different cities across southern Oklahoma. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention mini light traps baited with CO attracted the highest numbers of Ae. aegypti individuals compared to Biogents (BG)-Sentinel traps baited with Biogents (BG)-lure and octenol and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gravid traps baited with Bermuda grass-infused water. The discovery of Ae. aegypti mosquitoes within urban/exurban areas in Oklahoma is important from an ecological as well as a public health perspective.
埃及伊蚊是一种重要的亚热带病媒物种，预计在美国南部全年分布范围有限。自1940年以来，俄克拉荷马州尚未正式证实采集到该物种。2016年5月至9月期间，在俄克拉荷马州7个不同城市的42个地点使用3种不同的蚊虫诱捕器采集成年蚊子。2016年7月至9月期间，在俄克拉荷马州南部4个不同城市的18个不同地点采集到88只埃及伊蚊成虫。与用Biogents（BG）-诱捕剂和辛醇诱饵的Biogents（BG）-哨兵诱捕器以及用注入百慕大草的水诱饵的疾病控制和预防中心孕蚊诱捕器相比，用CO诱饵的疾病控制和预防中心微型灯光诱捕器吸引的埃及伊蚊个体数量最多。从生态和公共卫生角度来看，在俄克拉荷马州城市/郊区发现埃及伊蚊具有重要意义。
