# Culex

Culex is een geslacht van muggen uit de familie van de steekmuggen (Culicidae).

## Kenmerken

De muggen uit dit geslacht zijn typische steekmuggen. De kop, het gebochelde borststuk en achterlijf zijn duidelijk te onderscheiden, de mug heeft zes sprieterige pootjes en twee vleugels waarmee hij kan vliegen. Mannetjes hebben vaak pluim-achtige antennes. De grootte daarvan hangt sterk af van de soort. De soorten worden tussen de 6 en 8 millimeter groot.

## Leefwijze

Deze muggen zitten in rust met hun lichaam evenwijdig aan het wateroppervlak.

## Voortplanting

De larven leven in het water en ontwikkelen zich snel. De eitjes worden een voor een afgezet of in kleine groepjes die als vlotjes op het water drijven.

## Verspreiding en leefgebied

De meestvoorkomende soort van dit geslacht is Culex pipiens; deze komt voor op alle continenten met uitzondering van Antarctica.
In de lage landen komen vier Culex-soorten voor.
* Culex modestus
* Culex pipiens – Gewone steekmug
* Culex territans
* Culex torrentium

## Ziekteverspreiding

Veel soorten van het geslacht Culex zijn vectoren voor virusziekten als westnijlkoorts, Afrikaanse paardenpest en riftdalkoorts.
