Popis:	Few, if any, groups of mosquitoes present greater taxonomic confusion and difficulty than does the subgenus Melanoconion . At the present time, the species can be recognized with certainty only by the structures of the male terminalia. The females of most species can not be separated from one another; they are usually small and dark-colored, only a few having a distinctive golden-scaled scutum or white-ringed tarsi. The larvae of many species are readily recognizable, but for the most part they are insufficiently known to permit positive identification.
