Aedes aegypti (/ˈiːdiːz/ US: /eɪdz/ or /ˈeɪdiːz/ from Greek αηδής 'hateful' and /eɪˈdʒɪpti/ from Latin, meaning 'of Egypt'), sometimes called the Egyptian or yellow fever mosquito, is a mosquito that spreads diseases like dengue fever, yellow fever, malaria, and chikungunya. The mosquito can be recognized by black and white markings on its legs and a marking in the form of a lyre on the upper surface of its thorax. This mosquito originated in Africa, but is now a common invasive species that has spread to tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions throughout the world.
