{{Wildlife of Sri Lanka}}

Sri Lanka is a tropical island situated close to the southern tip of India. The invertebrate fauna is as large as it is common to other regions of the world. There are about 2 million species of arthropods found in the world, and still it is counting. So many new species are discover up to this time also. So it is very complicated and difficult to summarize the exact number of species found within a certain region.

This a list of the mosquitoes found from Sri Lanka.

Mosquito

Class: Insecta

Order: Diptera

Mosquitoes are small midge-like insects that can be found in terrestrial ecosystems wherever water is abundant. Females of most species are ectoparasites, whose tube-like mouthparts (called a proboscis) pierce the hosts' skin to consume blood. Many species of mosquitoes are vectors of diseases, so important in medicine and other fields.[1] Well over 3,500 species of mosquitoes were found and described, and new species are about to discover.[2] Sri Lanka is home to 131 species of mosquitoes that included to 16 genera with 17 endemic species.[3][4]
