The yellow fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti) is a mosquito that can spread dengue fever, chikungunya, and yellow fever viruses, and other diseases.The mosquito can be recognized by white markings on its legs and a marking in the form of a lyre on the thorax.lthough the lifespan of an adult A. aegypti is two to four weeks depending on conditions, the eggs can be viable for over a year in a dry state, which allows the mosquito to re-emerge after a cold winter or dry spell. The preference for biting humans is dependent on expression of the odorant receptor AeegOr4.
