Are you trying to say that the mosquito bit your arm?
Alighted wouldn’t be added in that case.
You could say “A mosquito bit my arm” ?
If that’s what u are trying to say.

@Park_Seoyeon Oh, thank you! 🙏✨That’s from translation site. I’d like to say something like a mosquito is flying and it landed on my arm. But when it’s lands (?) on someone’s arm, it will bite it immediately. So maybe bite is natural?🤔

Oh ok sorry! If it just lands in your arm then you could just say that the mosquito landed on your arm. That’s all.
