Mosquitoes are the most important vectors that can transmit many diseases agents to humans and animals. This study was conducted in Edirne central district between July 2017 2018 identify vector mosquito species, determine their seasonality distribution pattern general terms. Larvae, pupae, adults were collected from areas assessed as being particularly suitable for medically species included genus of Aedes, Culex, Anopheles. In addition foci naturally found areas, ovitraps placed proper points also used. As a result, 3155 female 353 male mosquitoes belonging 13 5 genera obtained.

Known have high preference warmer climate compared members maculipennis s.l., risk increasing its region with possible global warming future. The importance this increases even more since rice production is widespread especially use paddy fields an effective breeding place. While Aedes caspius commonly encountered, Ae. albopictus not during field observation ovitrap controls.
