In order to document the species richness of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) and their distributions in the Mexican state of Hidalgo, collecting trips were conducted to all physiographic regions (Coastal Plain of North Gulf, Sierra Madre Oriental, and Neo-volcanic Axis) and subregions of the state. Additionally, mosquito specimens from Hidalgo deposited in the Collection of Arthropods of Medical Importance (CAIM) were reexamined. A total of 3225 specimens were collected and studied and an additional 69 pinned mosquitoes and 15 microscope slides in CAIM were examined. The two Culicidae subfamilies Anophelinae and Culicinae, 8 tribes, 12 genera, 24 subgenera, and 56 species were documented. Of these, 4 tribes, 7 genera, 13 subgenera, and 26 species are new records for the mosquito fauna of Hidalgo. Nine species previously recorded were not found in the collections made during this study. Taxonomic notes, new distribution records, and comments about the medical importance of the species found are included.
为记录墨西哥伊达尔戈州蚊子(双翅目:蚊科)的物种丰富度及其分布情况,研究人员前往该州所有自然地理区域(北湾沿海平原、东马德雷山脉和新火山轴)及各次区域进行采集。此外,还重新检查了存放在具有医学重要性节肢动物收藏馆(CAIM)中的伊达尔戈州蚊子标本。共采集并研究了3225个标本,另外还检查了CAIM收藏的69只针插蚊子和15张显微镜载玻片。记录了蚊科的两个亚科按蚊亚科和库蚊亚科、8个族、12个属、24个亚属以及56个物种。其中,4个族、7个属、13个亚属和26个物种是伊达尔戈州蚊子动物区系的新记录。在本次研究采集的标本中未发现9种先前记录的物种。文中还包含分类学注释、新的分布记录以及关于所发现物种医学重要性的评论。
