Aedeomyia is a genus of mosquitoes in the family Culicidae, comprising seven recognized species.

== Description == Aedeomyia mosquitoes are distinguished by their broad scales and unique antennal structures. Females possess stout antennal flagellomeres, while males exhibit thickened apical flagellomeres. The larvae are identifiable by their swollen, strongly curved antennae, which exceed the length of the head capsule—a key diagnostic trait.
