背景1987年，吉利斯和库切发表了一个用于成年雌蚊形态鉴定的图示检索表。从那时起，几种新的按蚊被描述出来。方法以1987年成蚊雌蚊检索表为模板，编制成蚊雌蚊的现行检索表。结果收录了近32年来文献报道的新种。提供了一份目前已知的所有非洲热带物种的清单。斯氏按蚊首次被列为发生在非洲大陆。结论提出了非洲热带按蚊种的形态鉴定检索表。
Background In 1987, Gillies and Coetzee published a pictorial key for the morphological identification of adult female mosquitoes. Since then, several new species of anopheline mosquitoes have been described. Methods The 1987 key to adult female mosquitoes was used as the template for the current key. Results New species described in the literature over the past 32 years have been included. A list of all currently known Afrotropical species is provided. Anopheles stephensi is included for the first time as occurring on the African continent. Conclusions An updated key for the morphological identification of Afrotropical anopheline species is presented.
