Abstract

Nineteen species of anopheline and culicine mosquitoes are reported from larval collections made in northern Jordan and the Jordan Valley. Culex judaicus, Culiseta annulata, and Uranotaenia unguiculata are reported as new records for Jordan. The impact of agricultural development and man-made changes on the mosquito fauna of Jordan is discussed.
