Background and Aim: Efficient mosquito vectors are required to persist propagate arthropod-borne diseases that seriously affect impoverished populations worldwide. Mosquito sensilla plays a crucial role in host-seeking disease transmission humans. This study aimed distinguish between the several types of found on antennae maxillary palps Culex pipiens Aedes aegypti, matching this diversity with host preference transmission. Materials Methods: Overall, 1300 mosquitoes were collected examined using dissection light microscopy. Scanning electron microscopy was used identify describe diverse C. A. aegypti. Results: In total, 900 400 aegypti identified. The carry both trichoidea chaetica. antenna has long short grooved peg sensilla, whereas lacks pegs expresses only occasional pegs. express Capitate species exclusively show campaniform Conclusion: lack long-grooved presence few pegs, along limit range reduce its susceptibility many infections, unlike pipiens. Keywords: pipiens, microscopy, Sensilla.
