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 southeastern Tibet. Results A batch of specimens of the genus Aedes were collected in Motuo county, Linzhi. Among them, Aedes (Diceromyia) whartoni Mattingly, 1965 was identified. The subgenus and species, which were first found in Tibet Autonomous Region and Yunnan province, were a new record of subgenus and species in China. This article briefly describes and reports the main morphological characteristics, geographical distribution, breeding environment, and male terminalia structure of the subgenus Diceromyia and the species whartoni of Aedes. Conclusion Up to now, 16 species of Aedes are known in Tibet.
