Abundance and dynamics of anopheline larvae in a highland malarious area of south-central Ethiopia

Abundance and dynamics of anopheline larvae in a highland malarious area of south-central Ethiopia

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Malaria is a public health problem in Ethiopia, and increasingly so in highland areas, possibly because of global warming. This study describes the distribution, breeding habitat and monthly dynamics of anopheline larvae in Butajira,...
