This study aims to determine the presence of Anopheles sp. in Cibenda Urban Village Parigi Sub District Pangandaran District as a risk factor for malaria transmission. This research is a descriptive research. The data obtained is presented in the form of tables and narratives. The examination method used is a microscopic methode. The conclusions of this study are founded of Anopheles sundaicus, Anopheles barbirostris, Anopheles subpictus, Anopheles vagus in in Cibenda Urban Village Parigi Sub District Pangandaran District which have potential as risk factors for malaria transmission.
