Anopheles Meigen, 1818

GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION

Family
Subfamily

Generic abbreviation: An.

Type species: Anopheles maculipennis Meigen (ICZN 1959; Opinion 547)

Etymology: useless, unprofitable, hurtful (Gr)

With the exception of the polar icecaps and some isolated island groups in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, including Fiji and New Zealand, Anopheles species are found across the globe. Anopheles are the mosquitoes capable of transmitting the five Plasmodium parasites (P. falciparum, P. knowlesi, P. ovale, P. malariae and P. vivax) that cause human malaria. Of the 475 Anopheles species world-wide (<15%), only about 70 are of primary or secondary (local) importance as malaria vectors. Although often overlooked, the importance of Anopheles in arboviral transmission is substantial. O’nyong-nyong virus (ONNV) and Guaroa (GROV) viruses are spread only by Anopheles mosquitoesusually An. gambiae Giles and An. funestus Giles), and An. neivai Howard, Dyar & Knab, respectively.

The genus Anopheles is subdivided into eight subgenera: Anopheles (185 species; globally distributed), Baimaia (1 species; Oriental), Cellia (224 species; Old World), Christya (2 species; Afrotropical), Kerteszia (12 species; restricted to the Neotropics), Lophopodomyia (6 sp.; restricted to the Neotropics), Nyssorhynchus (40 species; restricted to the Neotropics) and Stethomyia (5 species; restricted to the Neotropics). Together with the small and geographically restricted genera Bironella (n = 8 species) and Chagasia (n = 5), Anopheles mosquitoes (n = 475) make up the distinctive subfamily Anophelinae.

BIONOMICS

Immatures

Immatures Anopheles habitats are typically clean, fresh, still or slow-moving waters with plentiful floating vegetation, but there are many exceptions. In primary forests in northern Vietnam, An. cucphuongensis Vu et al., 1990 individually occupy egg-cup-sized pools in limestone outcrops. Immature An. litoralis King tolerate the highly saline waters (≥ 2.5% to 3%) of the salt flats in the Philippines, and An. bwambae White are endemic to the hot springs in Bwambae County, Uganda.

Adults

Anopheles females are typically active at night, although several species will feed during the day in heavily shaded sites. Helium balloon captures over the Sahel in Mali showed that several African Anopheles, including An. coluzzii Coetzee & Wilkerson, An. gambiae s.s. and An. coustani Laveran, escape the harsh arid conditions of the Sahara Desert as fully gravid females by migrating long distances at altitudes of at least 240m, presumably to find more suitable conditions. That potentially infected Anopheles mosquitoes can disperse over large distances greatly impacts the accuracy of current malaria models and may go some way to explaining ongoing malaria in sub-Saharan African countries despite intensive malaria eradication programs.
