Mosquitoes are easily distinguished by their long proboscis projecting from the head, presence of scales on the wing veins and a fringe of scales along the wing edge.
Above, the thorax of the mosquito is observed which contains the compound eyes and antennae protruding from it.
The wings of the mosquito contain scaly venation with tiny scale structures on the side of the wings as well.
The thigh region of the appendage shows the presence of hair-like structures above the long thin forelegs.
