Objective To investigate and understand the fauna of mosquitoes in Tibet autonomous region. Methods Mosquito larvae of various breeding habitats in southeastern Tibet were investigated and sampled. Results Genus Toxorhynchites, Udaya, and Orthopodomyia, and species Toxorhynchites gravely, Udaya argyrurus, and Orthopodomyia pheloides were first found in Tibet. They are all new records of mosquitoes in Tibet. In this paper, the main morphological characteristics, distribution area, breeding environment of the three genera and species, and the morphology of male genitalia with the physical specimens are described and reported. Conclusion Due to the relatively low altitude, abundant rainfall and complex climate and environment in southeastern Tibet, mosquitoes are abundant. With the further investigation of the fauna, the genus and species richness of mosquitoes will undoubtedly increase further.
