  abstract = {{A}ny attempt to control a mosquito-borne disease should primarily focus on controlling its vector. {I}n {S}udan, arboviral infections are a major health problem where periodical outbreaks of arboviruses transmitted by{A}edes aegyptihave been reported. {T}his preliminary study was performed to uncover the population genetic diversity of{A}edes aegyptifrom {R}ed {S}ea {S}tate, {S}udan, using mt{DNA}-{COI}gene. {W}e performed morphological identification, {PCR} and {DNA} nucleotide sequencing and analysed the genetic polymorphism, and isolation by distance of{A}edes aegyptifrom four sites. {O}f the 55 samples successfully sequenced, six haplotypes were revealed. {G}lobal haplotype network revealed that the predominant haplotype in {S}udan ({H}ap1; 31 sequences = 56.4%), the second most frequent haplotype ({H}ap2; 13 sequences = 23.6%) and {H}ap 5 (3.6%) were identical or genetically close to isolates seen in different countries distributed in the {U}nited {S}tates, {S}outh {A}merica, {E}urope, {A}sia and two {A}frican isolates, one from {K}enya and the other from {E}uropa {I}sland ({M}ozambique {C}hannel). {H}aplotype 4 (3.6%) appeared closely related to mosquitoes sampled from {C}ameroon, {K}enya, {S}ri {L}anka and {I}ndia and belonged to a lineage that contained isolates from all over the geographical expansion. {H}aplotype 6 (1.8%) seemed quite distant from any other sequenced mt{DNA}. {T}o summarize, four haplotypes were found only in {S}udan, and one rare haplotype appeared genetically distant from all other haplotypes, suggesting a local origin. {S}ubdivision measures and testing suggested a probable free (or almost free) migration between the different sites sampled.},
