Water quality and immatures of the M and S forms of Anopheles gambiae s.s. and An. arabiensis in a Malian village
Abstract Introduction The associations between the immatures of Anopheles gambiae s.s. (Diptera: Culicidae), its M and S forms, and Anopheles arabiensis among and within larval breeding habitats in Banambani, Mali were investigated under varying conditions of water quality and rainfall. The intent w...
