A total of 31 species of mosquitoes belonging to 10 genera, i.e. Anopheles, Aedes, Armigeres, Culex, Harpagomyia, Hodgesia, Mansonia, Orthopodomyia, Toxorhynchites and Uranotaenia were collected from Car Nicobar Island. Four Anopheles species, An. barbumbrosus, An. insulaeflorum, An. kochi and An. roperi were recorded for the first time from this Island. An. sundaicus was the most predominant species encountered. The results of the study on anophelines with emphasis on species-specific breeding preference in various aquatic habitats have been recorded.
