[Preliminary results of an entomological survey of the potential arbovirus vectors in the French Territory of Afars and Issas].
The preliminary results of an entomological survey of the potential arbovirus vectors in the French Territory of Afars and Issas are exposed. 25 culicid species were recorded, specially Anopheles gambiae, Culex tritaeniorhynchus, C. univittatus, C. pipiens fatigans, Aedes caspius, Ae. vittatus, Ae. arabiensis. Ae. aegypti larvae were collected on a dhow arriving in Djibouti. 5 species of ticks and 4 sandfly speices were also recorded. The epidemiological modalities of certain arboviroses in this territory are discussed, depending on these entomological data and the uniterrupted travelling of local populations.
