Asian Bush Mosquito: Ochlerotatus japonicus

The Asian Bushmosquito is similar in appearance to the Asian Tiger Mosquito, however differs in scutum markings (a golden, broken lyre shape vs. a single white stripe).

 

 

They also only have three white stripes on their hind legs, with the last segment always being black

Compare to Yellow Fever Mosquito and Asian Tiger Mosquito, which both have five, ending in white.
