This species is native to eastern Asia but spread to North America in the late 1990s and to central Europe later. In the United States,\n                    <jats:italic>Ae. japonicus<\/jats:italic>\n                    was first detected in the Northeast in 1998. It has since spread to all states east of the Mississippi river including the five bordering states along the river\u2019s western bank (Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana) as well as to Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Washington, Oregon, and Hawaii. In Louisiana,\n                    <jats:italic>Ae. japonicus<\/jats:italic>\n                    was first reported from Orleans parish in 2020 and then from St. Tammany parish in 2023.
