Skeeter syndrome (papular urticaria) is a localized severe allergic reaction to mosquito bites, consisting of inflammation, peeling skin, hives, ulceration and sometimes fever. It is caused by allergenic polypeptides in mosquito saliva, and therefore is not contagious. It is one of several forms, being one of the most severe, of allergic responses to mosquito bites, termed mosquito bite allergies. Although the term seems informal, it has appeared in the published literature.
