Indonesia is the second most affected region in South East Asia and has the the highest malaria burden after India. The research was aimed to study the species diversity and biting activity of malaria vectors (<em>Anopheles</em> spp.) in Lifuleo Village, West Kupang District, Kupang Regency, East Nusa Tenggara Province. The mosquitoes was collected by using (1) the human landing collection technique, (2) aspirators for collecting mosquitoes resting on the wall of houses and cow barn, and (3) light traps. The research was done for four months. The result showed that there were six species of<em> Anopheles</em> i.e., <em>An. barbirostris</em>, <em>An. subpictus</em>, <em>An. annularis</em>, <em>An. vagus</em>, <em>An. umbrosus</em> and <em>An. indefinitus</em>. <em>An. barbirostris</em> and <em>An. subpictus</em> were two species with the highest density. The value of man hour density (MHD) indoor and outdoor for <em>An. barbirostris</em> were 5.45 and 6.23 respectively, and for <em>An. subpictus</em> were 1.35 and 1.56, respectively. The blood sucking activity indoor and outdoor for <em>An. barbirostris</em> occured at 22:00 to 4:00 and 21:00 - 04 respectively, whereas for <em>An. subpictus</em> at 8:00 p.m. to 21:00 and 22:00 to 23:00, respectively. Based on the value of man hour density the mosquito<em> Anopheles</em> spp. in Lifuleo village were exophagic and exophilic.}, number={2}, journal={Jurnal Entomologi Indonesia}, author={Rahmawati, Ety and Hadi, Upik Kesumawati and Soviana, Susi}, year={2015}, month={Sep.}, pages={53} }
