The distribution of two major malaria vectors, Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles arabiensis, in Nigeria

The distribution of two major malaria vectors, Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles arabiensis, in Nigeria

The distribution of Anopheles gambiae and An. arabiensis across the ecological zones of Nigeria (arid savanna in the north gradually turns into humid forest in the south) was investigated. Results of the present study were compared to the distributions determined from samples of indoor-resting femal...
