Kazakhstan , West and Central Asia, North Africa. Note . Aedes detritus has been recorded within NWR only in the Novgorod Province (14 localities: Fedorova, 1977 ; Panyukova & Medvedev, 2007 ). In the case of partial loss of thoracic and abdominal scales, the females of Ae . detritus can be mistakenly identified as some other Aedes species , for example as Ae . communis . The main range of Ae . detritus is located far westward and southward from the Novgorod Province , and no males of this species have been found in this province. Therefore, we have no arguments indicating reliable records of Ae . detritus in the Novgorod Province .
