Abstract
The current study included the collection and classification of mosquitoes and the identification of some species because of their medical and veterinary importance in terms of their harmful effect on health and their transmission of diseases. Three species of mosquitoes were diagnosed in the different study sites, namely Anopheles, Culex and Aedes, where five types of Anopheles and four types of Culex were recorded. As for the third genus, two types of it were recorded, and the proportions of the types collected from the study sites varied among themselves, as the percentages varied according to the day and night and the different seasons of the year, and the temperature had a role in this disparity of adults mosquitoes .
