ABSTRACT.

Malaria remains a public health problem in West Mesa Tenggara Province. Central Lombok District is one of the areas with high case of malaria. Annual Malaria Incidence (AMI) was increased fivm 5.9 rfix, in 2006, 6.7%,9 up to 8.1%0 in 2008. The objective of the study is to describe the ecological condition of Anopheles spp. through observation, measurement of environmental variables, larvae and adult collection.

This research was an observational research with cross-sectional study The population of this study is all mosquitos and breeding habitats of Anopheles spp. that exist in the research location. Ecological observations carried out on anopheles breeding habitats including acidity, salinity shaded places and aquatic biota. Air temperature and humidity measured at the adult mosquitoes trapping Niles.

The result showed that pH values of water is around 9.00. salinity in the breeding habitats around 14 ppm, and water biota (i.e. moss. grass. shrimps, fishes, tadpoles and crabs) surrounded by bushes with larvae density 0,1-28,8 each dipping. The air measurement at the time was between 23°-27oc Celsius and 65%-84% humidity. This research concludes that ecology and environmental conditions were s upporting the development of larvae and adult mosquito qf Anopheles spp.
