  • Title: Anopheles hervyi in Niger: no evidence for a role in Plasmodium falciparum transmission.
    Author: Labbo R, Czeher C, Djibrila A, Arzika I, Jeanne I, Duchemin JB.
    Journal: Med Vet Entomol; 2010 Mar; 24(1):62-5. PubMed ID: 19903247.
    Abstract:
    Anopheles hervyi is an endemic mosquito species with a very limited spatial distribution in the south east of Niger. No new captures have been reported since the 1960s and its role in malaria transmission has not been studied. In the present study, the use of CDC light traps showed it to be much more abundant than previously found but there was no evidence to suggest it was a malaria vector in this region. The larval habitats have not been identified but the potential role of a saline lake in determining the distribution of this species is discussed.
