malarian.

Brit.

/məˈlɛːrɪə/, U.S.

/məˈlɛriə/

Forms: 1700s mal'aria, 1800s mal-aria, 1800s– malaria.

Origin: A borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian malaria.

Etymology: < Italian malaria malaria (1572) < mala , feminine of malo bad ( < classical Latin malus : see mal- prefix) + aria air n.¹ Compare air n.¹ 1a.

1. Originally: an unwholesome condition of the atmosphere attributed to marshy districts of Italy and other hot countries; any febrile disease thought to be caused by this. Now: spec. any of a group of diseases of humans and other vertebrates caused by protozoans of the genus Plasmodium (phylum Apicomplexa), which are transmitted by mosquitoes and parasitize red blood cells, resulting in haemolysis, periodic fever, and various other symptoms.Various types of malaria are distinguished especially by the specific name of the causative species of Plasmodium (falciparum, vivax, etc.) or by adjectives designating the periodicity of fever (quartan, tertian, etc.) or other clinical characteristics (algid, cerebral, etc.).
