Hybridization between Aedes hendersoni and Aedes triseriatus12 [PDF]
Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1968 Field collections extended the range of Aedes hendersoni Cockerell east into Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio. One field-collected larva had characters of both A. hendersoni and A. triseriatus (Say) and was very similar to laboratory produced F1 hybrids. A. hendersoni was successfully colonized, and hybridized to A.
