The dominant Anopheles vectors of human malaria in Africa, Europe and the Middle East: occurrence data, distribution maps and bionomic précis
The DVS of Africa, Europe and the Middle East are discussed, with the predicted geographic extent for the following DVS (or species/suspected species complex*) provided for Africa: Anopheles (Cellia) arabiensis, An.
A global map of dominant malaria vectors
A global map of the dominant vector species (DVS) of malaria that makes use of predicted distribution maps for individual species or species complexes is described and highlights the spatial variability in the complexity of the vector situation.
The classification of genus Anopheles (Diptera: Culicidae): a working hypothesis of phylogenetic relationships.

The internal classification of genus Anopheles is updated to reflect taxonomic actions published since the classification was last reviewed in 1994, which includes additional species, eliminated species and changes to the hierarchical organization and composition of supraspecific groups.
The dominant Anopheles vectors of human malaria in the Asia-Pacific region: occurrence data, distribution maps and bionomic précis
This article concludes a project aimed to establish the contemporary global distribution of the DVS of malaria by using the Boosted Regression Tree (BRT) modelling method, and produces distribution maps of each DVS.

The distribution maps and bionomics review should both be considered as a starting point in an ongoing process of describing the distributions of these DVS (since the opportunistic sample of occurrence data assembled can be substantially improved) and documenting their contemporary bIONomics (since intervention and control pressures can act to modify behavioural traits).
Phylogeny and classification of Aedini (Diptera: Culicidae), based on morphological characters of all life stages
- J. F. Reinert, R. Harbach, I. Kitching
- Biology
- 1 November 2004
Higher-level relationships within Aedini, the largest tribe of Culicidae, are explored using morphological characters of eggs, fourth-instar larvae, pupae, and adult females and males to recognize as genera those groups that are ‘weighting independent’.

Mosquitoes of the Anopheles maculipennis group (Diptera: Culicidae) in Romania, with the discovery and formal recognition of a new species based on molecular and morphological evidence.

It seems likely that A. daciae is more widespread in eastern Europe and the Balkan States, and could be responsible for malaria transmission in these regions that is currently attributed to A. messeae.
