    Abstract:
    Mermithid parasites (Nematoda: Mermithidae) were observed in 11 mosquito species in 22 counties of Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin. Natural hosts included adult Aedes vexans, Ae. canadensis, Ae. cinereus, Ae. diantaeus, Ae. punctor, Anopheles punctipennis and Coquillettidia perturbans and larvae of Ae. abserratus, Ae. canadensis, Ae. cinereus, Ae. communis, Ae. diantaeus, Ae. provocans, Ae. punctor, Ae. stimulans and Cq. perturbans. These are the first records of such parasites in Indiana, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin.
