Mosquitoes belonging to the genus\n                    <ns3:italic>Haemagogus<\/ns3:italic>\n                    are generally geographically restricted to the forests of Central and South America and the Caribbean and are the known sylvan vectors for yellow fever virus and emerging MAYV.

Its role in arboviral transmission however is not fully understood.
