A note on the distribution of Aedes (Diceromyia) furcifer/taylori, a yellow fever vector, in The Gambia
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 September 2011
Abstract
Following the 1978 epidemic of yellow fever in The Gambia, the distribution of the potential vector, Aedes (Diceromyia) furcifer/taylori group, was studied during the 1979 rainy season. Evening biting catches conducted in villages throughout the country revealed that A. furcifer/taylori was the most abundant vector biting man in the east of the country where the 1979 epidemic had its focus. Taxonomic studies showed that only A. furcifer and not A. taylori was present.
