Abstract

In order to further get the mosquito fauna in Qinghai province, China, a survey of mosquito larvae breeding sites was conducted in Ledu county, Qinghai province from August to September 2018. Specimens of mosquito larvae were collected, and were made into pinned specimens for morphological taxonomic identification after they were reared to adults. In this investigation, Culex (Culex) vagans Wiedemann, 1828 was found among the mosquito specimens collected from the rural household water storage tanks and the river ditches in Ledu county.
