There are many species of mosquito in Ireland, about 20, but the majority do not feed off humans. Most bites are from one or two species and are much rarer than midge bites. Our mosquitoes don't carry malaria though there was an outbreak in Cork in the 1850s that was put down to mosquitoes.
There are species of non-biting midge that look very similar to mosquitoes and the two are often confused in Ireland.
