Neoregelia mosquito

Larvae stage in a Neoregelia Jeannie purchased from a grower near San Diego.  Wyeomyia vanduzeei and Wyeomyia mitchellii both possibilities.  Aedes albopictus also possible. Culex? Culex quinquefasciatus

Could be either a foreign import that was picked up in San Diego, a San Diego mosquito, or even a native.  To me the abdomen looks too big and the head too small of any of these.  They moved around like they had a suction head that was shooting in and out with movements more like a worm.

Choose these species based on this and this.  Could be larvae of many I guess.  Most likely Aedes albopictus if mosquito larvae.
