Skusea pembaensis
''Skusea pembaensis'' is a mosquito (Diptera: Culicidae). Before the reclassification of aedine genera,〔"Reinert JF, Harbach RE, Kitching IJ. 2004. Phylogeny and classification of Aedini (Diptera: Culicidae) based on morphological characters of all life stages. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 142: 289–368"〕 ''Skusea pembaensis'' was known as ''Aedes pembaensis''.
==Distribution==
''Skusea pembaensis'' is the only representative of the genus on the African mainland, but several closely related species (''Skusea lambrechti'', ''cartroni'', and ''moucheti'') are present in Madagascar and some islands of the Indian Ocean.〔"Brunhes, J., 1977, Les moustiques de l’archipel des Comores. II. – Description de quatres espèces nouvelles ou peu connues. Répartition des members du sous-genre Skusea dans l’océan Indien occidental. Affinités de la faune culicidienne des Comores. Cahiers ORSTOM, ser Ent Med et Parsitol 15, 153-170."〕 ''Skusea pembaensis'' is found on the east coast of Africa, as far north as Pate Island, Kenya 〔"Van Someren, E.C., Furlong, M., 1964, The biting habits of ''Aedes (Skusea) pembaensis'' Theo. and some other mosquitoes of Faza, Pate Island, East Africa. B Entomol Res 55, 97-124."〕 and as far south as Maputo, Mozambique.〔"McIntosh BM. 1975. Mosquitoes as vectors of viruses in southern Africa. Entomology Memoir. No 43. Department of agricultural technical services. Republic of South Africa"〕
The distribution of these mosquitoes seems to be strongly tied to the coast. Females have been found as far as four miles inland, but appear to be most numerous within one mile of the coast, whereas males are rarely found even one mile from the coast 〔"Brooke Worth, C., de Sousa, J., Weinbren, M.P., 1961, Studies on the life-history of Aedes (Skusea) pembaensis (Theobald) (Diptera, Culicidae). B Entomol Res 52, 257-261"〕
