Diversity, composition, altitude, and seasonality of high-altitude windborne migrating mosquitoes in the Sahel: Implications for disease transmission

2022-08-20

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies have reported Anopheles mosquitoes captured at high-altitude (40–290 m above ground) in the Sahel. Here, we describe this migration modality across genera and species of African Culicidae and examine its implications for disease transmission and control. As well as Anopheles , six other genera— Culex, Aedes, Mansonia, Mimomyia, Lutzia , and Eretmapodites comprised 90% of the 2,340 mosquitoes cap...
