Abstract: Document concerning a taxonomic catalog of mosquitoes collected on Pohnpei Island, Mokil Atoll, and Pingelap Atoll within Pohnpei State, the Federated States of Micronesia. The document presents a detailed survey conducted during the 20th century, focusing on the Diptera family Culicidae. It includes systematic identification and classification of mosquito species found in these specific geographic locations in Micronesia. The catalog The study encompasses entomological and ecological subject domains, addressing species diversity and habitat associations on the islands and atolls mentioned. The document is structured as a scientific report with taxonomic keys and specimen records, contributing to the understanding of mosquito fauna in the Federated States of Micronesia. It documents field collections and laboratory identifications carried out by researchers affiliated with regional institutions specializing in tropical entomology and vector-borne disease studies. The geographic focus on Pohnpei Island and the two atolls reflects the ecological variation within Pohnpei State. The catalog includes references to prior entomological surveys and integrates findings with existing literature on Pacific island mosquito species. The treatment of Micronesia is comprehensive, detailing species presence and distribution across multiple island ecosystems within the state.
