text: Later on, with the observations that malaria occurred more often near the water logged areas, it was attributed to miasmata and effluvia from swamps [hence its name, Italian mal aria=bad air]. While Laveran, a French army surgeon stationed in Constantine, Algeria, demonstrated the parasites in the blood of a patient suffering from malaria on November 6, 1880, Ronald Ross, a British officer in the Indian Medical Service, solved the problem of malaria transmission by demonstrating the malaria parasite forms (poetically called by him as the million murdering seeds) within the gut wall of the mosquitoes on August 20, 1897.[More Here]
