White-bellied Mosquito

Armigeres subalbatus

Description:

Diptera; Culicidae; Armigeres; Armigeres subalbatus (Coquillett, 1898). The Mosquito in my photo looks like many of the pictures of Armigeres subalbatus in inaturalist.org, but Wikipedia does not include Philippines in its distribution list for that species. However, Wiki does confirm the presence of the Genus Armigeres in Southeast Asia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armigeres. So, I originally called this Armigeres sp., but a species suggestion from Võ Anh Tuấn helped confirm this as A. subalbatus and then I found a website which confirms distribution in Philippines - https://www.wrbu.si.edu/vectorspecies/mo...

Habitat:

Spotted, this afternoon, in our backyard.
