Abstract: Mosquitoes (Culicidae) are the most significant arthropods of medical importance because of the burden of diseases, such as malaria, yellow fever, and West Nile fever, that they transmit to humans. In 2017, the most recently published checklist of mosquitoes from Saratov Province included 34 species representing six genera. This article provides a review of historical and recent studies on the fauna of blood-sucking mosquitoes in Saratov Province. Based on the analysis of literature data, the checklist of mosquitoes has been updated. The updated checklist includes 37 species of five genera.
