Sabethes gymnothorax
Here in South America, mosquitoes transmit some diseases, but fortunately this is not one of them ;D
It is a cool looking mosquito, but I still don't want it biting me ^_^
Thanks Ian! Must be correct!
Nice work Ian. This would be such a cool looking mosquito to get bite by!
I think I found it. A female Sabethes gymnothorax mosquito http://www.nhm.ac.uk/nature-online/speci...
Yeah. At the moment of the photograph it was biting me
Very strange. Does it bite?
I saw a similar one in Colombia, but we couldn't photographed it, it was really small and I didn't have a macro that time.
