Abstract
The authors carried out a morphological and karyotypic analysis of an invasive species of Aedes koreicus mosquito from the Republic of Kazakhstan. It is shown that the larvae of Ae. koreicus from the Republic of Kazakhstan have a morphology typical for this species. The authors studied the Metaphase chromosomes of this species obtained from imaginal disks of larvae of the 4th age. The authors carried out Lactoacetoorsein staining of chromosomes and calculated values of relative lengths, and centromeric index of Ae. koreicus chromosomes. It is shown that all three pairs of Ae chromosomes koreicus are metacentric, chromosome 1 is significantly shorter than chromosomes 2 and 3, and is homomorphic, as in other species of the genus Aedes.
