Evidence
The linked sources identify this contribution and its scope. WRS has not independently reconstructed the scientific claims. This is the August 1897 human-malaria mosquito observation, not the later complete avian cycle or the full proof of human transmission. Husein Khan was the participant, not a paper coauthor; Grassi, Bignami and Bastianelli’s later work remains separate.
