Comment: Four mosquitoes were identified as Ae. cyprius . It was very rare among the mosquitoes collected during this study, but it can be found at the beginning of the warm season in May and June. The only individuals collected in the country from 2008 to 2020 were caught in northern Estonia. The low numbers captured could also be due to collection bias.
