The members of the Anopheles genus of mosquito which can carry the parasite which causes malaria
malaria mosquitoes; distinguished by the adult's head-downward stance and absence of breathing tubes in the larvae
Several species are found in the United States
They may be distinguished from the ordinary mosquitoes of the genus Culex by the long slender palpi, nearly equaling the beak in length, while those of the female Culex are very short
Unless they become themselves infected by previously biting a subject affected with malaria, the insects cannot transmit the disease
{i} type of mosquito
A genus of mosquitoes which are secondary hosts of the malaria parasites, and whose bite is the usual, if not the only, means of infecting human beings with malaria
They also assume different positions when resting, Culex usually holding the body parallel to the surface on which it rests and keeping the head and beak bent at an angle, while Anopheles holds the body at an angle with the surface and the head and beak in line with it
