The problem of the spread and acclimatization of mosquitos Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus is considered as major/minor vectors of Zika fever (and some other viral fevers) in the temperate climate of the Black Sea coast of Russia and Crimea. The analysis of the spread of the mosquitos in the world with taking into account geographic information system, maps of species habitats were made up; territorial boundaries of habitat were set, as well as biological and ecological characteristics of the different types of mosquito populations, climatic conditions, means of dispersal, conditions of a possible expansion of the regions; the risk of possible penetration of the major/minor species to other areas were assessed, including the Black Sea coast of Russia and Crimea.
