Roxanne Connelly, 2014 Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory Pronunciation guide for the mosquitoes of Florida

Roxanne Connelly, 2014 Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory Binomial nomenclature Bionomial nomenclature is the scientific naming of organisms – Refers to the genus and species Mosquitoes are classified as belonging to these descriptive categories: – Kingdom – Anamalia – Phylum – Arthropoda – Class – Insecta – Order – Diptera – Family – Culicidae – Various genera and species

Roxanne Connelly, 2014 Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory Notes In written documents: – Genus name is capitalized – Genus and the species name are written in italics – The genus is often abbreviated with a two letter designation – In a document, the first time the genus is used, it should be spelled out; thereafter, it can be abbreviated with the two letter designation

Roxanne Connelly, 2014 Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory Notes In written documents: – The first time a species is mentioned, it should include the last name of the author who described it and the year it was described – If the author designation is “L.”, it was described by Linnaeus – If the author name and year is in parentheses, it indicates that the current designation is not where it was originally placed
