This article is the third in a series to be published in the Bulletin to add meaning to the names of European\ mosquitoes. For each entry the name of the taxon is given together with the author and date and the reference to the\ original description. There is also either a quotation from the original description, translated where necessary, or a\ resume indicating the author\&$\#$39;s reason for using the name in question. Where appropriate, a brief explanation of the\ etymology is provided In cases where the explanation is not clear, correspondence to the editors is invited.

Globally, malaria is without question the most important of the insect-bome diseases. At the present time over 2000 million people in over a hundred tropical and subtropical countries of the world live under the threat of the disease. Assessments of the number of people infected vary, but the figure is probably in\ excess of 400 million. It is estimated that malaria causes, or contributes to, the deaths of between one and\ three million people each year, mostly children under five years of age (World Health Org;mi7.ation, 1996).\ The situation in Europe is that, with the exception of the Ural region of Russia and Ukraine (Nikolaeva,\ 1996), endemically transmitted malaria has been elimin\"ted. In 1995 there were 50 cases of endemically\ transmitted malaria in Bulgaria (Nikolaeva, 1996), indicating that constant vigilance is necessary. Only
female Anopheles mosquitoes, of which there are currently eighteen species recognised in Europe but only\ five in Britain, can transmit malaria.


The question that entomologists and health woIkers are asking at present is \"with global climatic change;\ will malaria return to these shores as an endemically transmitted disease?\" In order to begin to answer\ this question it is necessary to examine the magnitude of the predicted climatic warming in Britain, the\ environmental requirements of the malarial parasite and the ways in which mosquito populations might\ be affected.
