Pandas are killing themselves off, so I would just let that segment of nature take it's proper course. Don't want to have sex? Not my problem.
I am tempted to say Furries, but I think their 'species' will eventually die off from getting their 'gear' stuck in their fur suit zipper too many times.
I could tolerate a world without mosquitoes, but I am giving them a reprieve due to their role in bringing back dinosaurs in Jurassic Park.
Eradicating HIV or Ebola would be a mere temporary comfort in the long run, as there is always some other disease waiting in the wings.
I think eradicating Kudzu would be the ideal course of action.

Mosquitos. They create itchy bites, carry diseases, and will be the creators of vampires once they hybrize with humans. Plus I'm allergic to mosquito bites.They are extra big and itchy to be.

Mosquitos that can carry diseases. Yes, the real target here is malaria, but the mosquitos are accessories to the crime, and must die.
Bajorans because they deserve it. Long live Cardassia and long live the transparently über-fascist but pathetically weak Cardassian empire. Seriously, how were those spoon-heads ever really a threat? When they were introduced it only took a few hits to knock a warship out of commision. And before you say that it was years after the war then why didn't they improve their ships? Looked pretty easy to kill a few Cardies so I can't imagine it would have been a very long war.

From a global perspective I'd say destroy the HIV virus.
Mosquitoes seem to be a popular choice. Some birds, fish, frogs, dragonflies and others eat mosquitoes or their larva but perhaps the non-bloodsucking species could still feed those if the bloodsucking species went extinct.
Personally I find horseflies to be even more annoying bloodsuckers than mosquitoes. Ticks are the worst though, they don't just bite you they hang on for days and they are the only bloodsuckers that spread diseases (TBE and borrelia) where I live so from a personal perspective I'd exterminate the ticks.
From a global perspective I'd say destroy the HIV virus.
Does that count as a species though?

If you have to be picky I'll look it up, Wikipedia says (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiv) there are 2 species of HIV, namely HIV-1 and HIV-2. But for example mosquitoes is a whole family so I'm not the only one picking a group of species.
edit: Removed incorrect usage of the word "genus".
