Abstract

This is the first time since 1977 that a complete checklist of the mosquito species occurring in Greece has been assembled. Several nomenclatorial and taxonomic changes that have been made in the intervening 16 years are reflected in the checklist. Notes are added on several species to assist in understanding the changes and reasons for including certain species. A bibliography covers the literature related directly to the mosquitoes of Greece and information needed to understand what has taken place historically to affect the nomenclature and identification of Greek culicids.
