Abstract
An extensive larval mosquito survey was conducted in Craighead County in northeastern Arkansas in 1990-91. Nineteen species representing 8 g enera were collected. Culex restuans was the most cosmopolitan species in relation to habitat utilization, being collected in 5 of 7 habitat types sampled. A major range extension of Aedes taeniorhynchus in Ark ansas was documented as well as the first known collection of Aedes al bopictus in the northeastern part of the state.
