Biting rates and relative abundance of Simulium flies under different climatic conditions in an onchocerciasis endemic community in Ghana

BACKGROUND: Knowledge of the relative abundance and biting rates of riverine blackflies (vectors of onchocerciasis) is essential as these entomological indices affect transmission of the disease. However, transmission patterns vary from one ecological zone to another and this may be due to differenc...
