Pronunciation guide for the mosquitoes of FloridaRoxanne Connelly, 2014Florida Medical Entomology LaboratoryBinomial nomenclatureBionomial nomenclature is the scientific naming of organismsRefers to the genus and speciesMosquitoes are classified as belonging to these descriptive categories:Kingdom AnamaliaPhylum ArthropodaClass InsectaOrder DipteraFamily CulicidaeVarious genera and species

Roxanne Connelly, 2014Florida Medical Entomology LaboratoryNotesIn written documents:Genus name is capitalizedGenus and the species name are written in italicsThe genus is often abbreviated with a two letter designationIn a document, the first time the genus is used, it should be spelled out; thereafter, it can be abbreviated with the two letter designationRoxanne Connelly, 2014Florida Medical Entomology LaboratoryNotesIn 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 describedIf the author designation is L., it was described by LinnaeusIf the author name and year is in parentheses, it indicates that the current designation is not where it was originally placedRoxanne Connelly, 2014Florida Medical Entomology LaboratoryExamplesCulex quinquefasciatus Say 1823Described by Thomas Say in 1823Culiseta inornata (Williston 1893)Orignially described in 1893 by Williston as Culiseta inornatusRoxanne Connelly, 2014Florida Medical Entomology LaboratoryGenusGenera
