Mosquitoes in the Toxorhynchites genus (Theobald, 1901) are specialized predators of container-breeding mosquito larvae, including major Aedes disease vectors. Despite their biological control potential, species boundaries and phylogenetic relationships remain poorly understood. Utilizing country-wide sampling across Panama, we evaluated the taxonomic status and diversity of local Toxorhynchites…
