What is the most compact and lightweight hammock that includes an attached mosquito net. I am looking for something that I can keep in my daybag at all times for quick deployment when the opportunity presents itself or for emergency use.

I don't know if it's the smallest, but my HH ultralite Backpacker A-sym packs up smaller than a football (the stuff sack it comes in is 9" by 12" when flat), and it's only 2 pounds, complete.
I suggest looking into the Moskito Traveller Hammock from Byers of Maine. It weighs a pound, is $40, and packs to about 8x6x4.
Yea, the bayer is tiny. Likely the smallest packing one I have had.
Are you planning on carrying a tarp?? (I think) A 8' x 5' sil nylon "should" do & they pack very small also.
AND: with any hammock you will need a suspension system of some sort. Which also takes up space. My straps will fit in a soft ball box, with room to spare.
When you have a backpack on, no matter where you are, you’re home.
PAIN is INEVITABLE. MISERY is OPTIONAL.
This one might be a winner:
