heal.abstract	Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus, an invasive mosquito species of great medical importance, was first recorded in Athens, Greece, in 2008. Its presence raised awareness among people and as a consequence numerous ""tiger-like"" mosquito specimens were sent to Benaki Phytopathological Institute for identification and relevant information. The results of the adult mosquito specimens, collected for three years (2009-2011), revealed that Aedes albopictus occurs in many municipalities around Athens, in Attica Prefecture, and in many parts of the country. The mosquito samples confirmed also the presence of the native species Aedes (Stegomyia) cretinus. Our data, based on people awareness and annoyance, suggest the need to implement appropriate surveillance programs for monitoring the presence and population densities of Stegomyia mosquitoes in the frame of an integrated mosquito control program.	en
