Among the mosquitoes, Culiseta longiareolata plays a notable role in the transmission of avian malaria, tularemia and arboviral diseases, including West Nile fever. We conducted this study to characterise the cytochrome oxidase I (COI) and internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) fragments of Cs. longiareolata in northwestern Iran to determine the classification status of this species.
