Abstract
First-stage Dirofilaria larvae were found infecting the Malpighian tubules in 3 of 163 Aedes albopictus collected from New Orleans, LA, during June–July 1994. Further studies wall be necessary to provide definitive identification of the parasite species, and to better describe the vectorial status of Ae. albopictus.Keywords
