    Author: Brengues J.
    Journal: Med Trop (Mars); 1978; 38(6):691-4. PubMed ID: 370500.
    Abstract:
    Improvement in communications, unchecked urbanization and use of inadequate insecticides have promoted widespreading and proliferation of C.p. fatigans in tropical Africa. This mosquito is a pest for man but also a main vector of Bancroftian filariasis. Various sanitation measures and insecticidal control are now available to destroy it; these control methods are indicated.
