Background Investigating the species distribution and their role in malaria transmission is
important as it varies from place to place and is highly needed to design interventions …

Background A number of Anopheles species play either a primary or secondary role in
malaria transmission. This necessitates understanding the species composition, bionomics …

Abstract Background Malaria transmission in Cameroon is mediated by a plethora of vectors
that are heterogeneously distributed across the country depending on the biotope. To …

Background Transmission of malaria in the highlands of Ethiopia is poorly understood and
usually attributed to importation by mobile populations or local transmission by Anopheles …

Background The transmission of malaria is heterogeneous, and varies due to altitude. The
information on whether the transmission of malaria is indigenous or imported to highland …

Abstract Background The malaria vector Anopheles arabiensis exhibits greater behavioural
and ecological plasticity than the other major vectors of the Anopheles gambiae complex …

Abstract Background Highland areas of Africa are mostly malaria hypoendemic, due to
climate which is not appropriate for anophelines development and their reproductive fitness …

In Ethiopia, vector control is the principal strategy to reduce the burden of malaria. The
entomological indicators of malaria transmission such as density, sporozoite rate and …

Background Mosquitoes belonging to the Anopheles gambiae sensu lato complex play a
major role in malaria transmission across Africa. This study assessed the relative importance …

Abstract Background The Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (sl) and Anopheles funestus sl
species complexes contain the most important malaria vectors in Africa. Within the An …
