Abstract

Objective To investigate the fauna of mosquitoes in Tibet Autonomous Region, China. Methods From August to September, 2017, investigation and sampling, specimen preparation, and taxonomic identification were performed for mosquito larvae in various types of breeding sites in the southeastern area of Tibet. Results A batch of Anopheles specimens were collected in Linzhi, and they were identified as Anopheles gigas baileyi, An. lindesayi, An. maculatus, An. willmori, An. pseudowillmori, An. interruptus, and An. bengalensis, among which An. interruptus and An. bengalensis were found for the first time in Tibet and were the new records of mosquito species in this region. This article describes and reports the main morphological characteristics, distribution areas, breeding environment, and structure of male terminalia of the two species. Conclusion Up to now, 12 species of the two subgenera of Anopheles have been found in Tibet; however, the number of species will further increase with the development of mosquito investigation.
