Implicating mosquito → fly
Link to implication

Reason:

Mosquitoes are flies, insects of the order Diptera. I do think that the Diptera alias should be reversed (or fly be aliased to dipteran); many members of Diptera do not resemble normal flies, such as the flightless sheep ked, so the tag may be confusing. But, assuming it's not;

Other Diptera Implications

• botfly -> fly
• crane_fly -> fly
• drain_fly -> fly
• flesh_fly -> fly
• gnat -> fly
• horsefly -> fly
• louse_fly -> fly
• sheep_ked -> louse_fly
• mydas_fly -> fly
• robber_fly -> fly
• laphria -> robber_fly
• tsetse_fly -> fly

• fly_humanoid -> insect_humanoid
• mosquito_humanoid -> fly_humanoid

• boom_fly -> fly
• big_beautiful_fly -> boom_fly

Diptera Aliases

• black_fly_(tboi) -> fly (Just a generic fly)
• bluebottle_fly -> blue_bottle_fly
• bottlebee -> blue_bottle_fly
• tsetse -> tsetse_fly
• tik-tik_fly -> tsetse_fly
• tzetze -> tsetse_fly
• tzetze_fly -> tsetse_fly

• fly_humanoid -> dipteran_humanoid (?)

Related Aliases

• beelzebub -> beelzebub_(disambiguation)
• beelzebub_(demon), beelzebub_(darkwing_duck), and beelzebub_(monster_girl_quest)
• beelzebub_(mgq) -> beelzebub_(monster_girl_quest)

Fly is a bit of a tricky issue; personally, I feel Diptera/Diptera and fly should alias to fly_(animal), especially since a common mistag I've seen is using it when a user meant to tag "flying". Similar thing happened with the mole tag and lead to the creation of the mole_(animal) tag.

Being a species/character in TBOI I don't mind keeping the distinct tag, however maybe it should be a character tag instead of a species

Anyways, I support this implication regardless, since mosquito are inherently dipterans

Yeah, that's why I suggested the alias to dipteran; fly_(animal) could be aliased to it. While it is a copyright-specific tag, it's... literally just a fly. There's nothing special or identifying about it.

It's still an identifiable character from a franchise, and sometimes we can be more relaxed with those in regards to character tags. I don't mind keeping it as a non-species character tag but that's just my personal opinion.

Fair enough.
