Adult mosquito surveillance was conducted using black light traps in August of 2006 and 2007 at Wangging county and Yanji city, Jilin Province, China to identify the distribution of anopheline mosquitoes in northern China. A total of 2459 female mosquitoes comprising three genera and eight species including Anopheles ( Anopheles ) lesteri , An. ( Ano .) kleini , An. ( Ano .) pullus, Culex inatomii , Cx. orientalis , Cx. pipiens , Cx. bitaeniorhynchus and Aedes vexans nipponii were collected.
