Using geometric wing morphometrics to distinguish Aedes japonicus japonicus and Aedes koreicus

Abstract Background Aedes japonicus japonicus (Theobald, 1901) and Aedes koreicus (Edwards, 1917) have rapidly spread in Europe over the last decades. Both species are very closely related and occur in sympatry. Females and males are difficult to distinguish. However, the accurate species discrimina...
