Excerpt from Malaria Mosquitoes: Abstract of a Discourse Delivered Before the Royal Institution of Great Britain on March 2nd 1900 Almost simultaneously Koch repeated and confirmed with the weight of his authority most of the results which had been obtained as regards both the human and avian parasites. In August 1899, the malarial expedition sent to Sierra Leone by the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (of which expedition I was a member), found the human parasites in two species of Anopheles in that colony, namely A. Costalis, Loew, and A. Funestus, Giles. I hear also that the same result has been obtained with Anopheles in two other parts of the world, so that it would appear that something like nine species of Anopheles have now been inculpated - while as yet every species of Culex which has been tried has failed to give positive results. From this point it becomes impossible to follow in detail the researches carried out in connection with the mosquito theory in various parts of the world. The facts already collected would fill a small volume; and every month witnesses additional publications on the subject. I shall therefore, in conclusion, content myself with abrief reference to three points of leading importance.
