Anopheles funestus is a species of mosquito in the Culicidae family. This species was first described in 1900 by Giles.[1] The female is attracted to houses where it seeks out humans in order to feed on their blood, mostly during the night. This mosquito is a major vector of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa.[2]
