Dear Adeniyi Kamoru,

The attached file can be useful for you.

Best regards,

I know the following work, useful for the identification of preimaginal stages of Italian mosquitoes:

Romi R., Pontuale G., Sabatinelli G., 1997 - Le zanzare italiane: generalità e identificazione degli stadi preimmaginali. - Fragmenta Entomologica, Roma, 29, suppl.: 1-141. This work is also rich in references.

Have you ever heard about "Mosquitoes and their control"? There is a complete chapter about mosquitos taxonomy and their identification, both larval and adult identification keys. I give to you the reference: BECKER, N., PETRIC, D., ZGOMBA, M., BOASE, C., MADON, M., DAHL, C. & KAISER, A., 2010. Mosquitoes and their control. Second Edition, Springer. 577 pp. 

Dear Adeniyi,

I suppose you are interested in African mosquitoes, therefore you can see the attached files, surely not complete but, I hope, useful for your job.

All the best

Adeniyi, the straight answer is no.  There are 3,540+ species of mosquitoes currently recognized in the world and about 15-25 new species are described each year. So, an atlas for identifying all of those females and larvae (many of each unknown) would be very difficult to prepare and impractical to work with.  You need to concentrate on finding regional keys for the areas where you intend to work..

There are guides that can help you identify both adults and larvae of mosquitoes each of the existing species. Example: Clave fotográfica para larvas de zancudo (Diptera: Culicidae) presentes en Centroamérica y Panamá.

Molecular systematics and genomics are providing ample information and novel nomenclature as a results; ecological information is updating with mosquito invasion into new areas that they did colonized before now.

I have seen the atlas it a great teaching aids where there are no type specimens, Thanks a million

However, the question comes from the afrotropical region so I think these publications may narrow the search and facilitate identification to an extend
