A review of all taxonomic actions within the subgenus Lynch Arribálzaga, 1891 (Diptera: Culicidae) Reinert et al. (2008) is provided. In particular, the complex historical taxonomic treatment of the type species of this group is dissected and explained in detail. Additionally, current challenges with the definition of the subgenus and its constituents are discussed, as are the requisite steps for a successful revision of the taxon. Going forward, we conclude that a taxonomic revision of the species should include a neotype designation for (Rondani, 1848) from topotypical material. Additionally, we provide a review of the characters and taxa that need to be re-evaluated and well-described in order to stabilize the taxonomy of the subgenus. This effort represents a key step towards a stable nomenclature of the Tribe Aedini.
本文对林奇亚属（Lynch Arribálzaga，1891）（双翅目：蚊科）内的所有分类学行为进行了综述。赖纳特等人（2008年）。特别详细剖析并解释了该类群模式种复杂的历史分类处理。此外，还讨论了该亚属及其组成部分定义方面当前面临的挑战，以及对该分类单元进行成功修订所需的步骤。展望未来，我们得出结论，该物种的分类修订应包括根据模式产地材料为（隆达尼，1848年）指定新模式。此外，我们还对为稳定该亚属分类学而需要重新评估和详细描述的特征及分类单元进行了综述。这项工作是迈向伊蚊族稳定命名法的关键一步。
