Were collected a handful of mosquitoes Kyulx Moodstos on the south coast of Britain, recorded by more than 60 years ago but did not appear after that.
He said Golding, published its findings in the Journal of parasites and insect vectors of disease (journal Parasites and Vectors) that this type does not appear again in Britain until now.
He noted that the type of mosquito has reached new recently, perhaps through international shipping.
Experts believe that the disease control mosquitoes Kyulx Moodstos may be behind the outbreak of epidemics of West Nile virus intermittently in recent times in southern Europe.
