Two introduced species of Aedes (Stegomyia), Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti, occur in the New World. Three characters, easily and simultaneously observed from an anteroventral view, allow for rapid and reliable specific identification of most specimens that lack the characteristic scutal scale patterns. These 3 characters are the presence or absence of pale scales on the clypeus; the presence or absence of a narrow, median line of pale scales on the anterior face of the midfemora; and the pattern of pale and dark scales on abdominal sterna III-V.
两种引入的伊蚊（白纹伊蚊亚属），即白纹伊蚊和埃及伊蚊，出现在新大陆。从腹面观可轻松同时观察到三个特征，这使得大多数缺乏盾片鳞片特征图案的标本能够快速且可靠地进行物种鉴定。这三个特征分别是：额唇基上有无浅色鳞片；中股节前表面有无一条狭窄的浅色鳞片中线；以及腹部第三至五节腹板上浅色和深色鳞片的图案。
