- W79237878 abstract "Background: Culex quinquefasciatus had always been characterized as an urban vector of Bancroftian filariasis in West Africa. However, there have been records of limited entry into rural pockets in East and West Africa. Studies were therefore undertaken to investigate the extent of its advance and behaviour in rural areas of diverse vegetation, Bayelsa State, Nigeria. Methods: Culex quinquefasciatus were collected by the pyrethrum spray catch technique from houses where occupants had slept the previous night in rural towns/villages across ecovegetational zones (Fresh water swamp forest, brackish water swamp forest, Mangrove water forest) in Bayelsa State, Nigeria, April, 2009- March, 2010. Results: A total of 2084 Culex quinquefasciatus, approximately 4-fold the number of Anopheles gambiae s.l. was collected. More were collected in the wet than dry season and the difference was significant (χ 2 cal. = 403.9, df=1, p<0.05). It occurred across the three eco-vegetational zones; differences were not significant. The dominant gonotrophic stage was unfed (57.1%); the other three stages were: fed (20.9%), gravid (11.1%) and half-gravid (10.9%). Indoor resting densities across the eco-yegetational zones were 24.2-47.0 mosquitoes/room/night. Spatial variation in densities was not significant. Man-biting rates were 7.6-13.2 bites/person/night. Differences in man-biting rates were significant (t=12.083, df=6, p=0.00); higher densities and biting rates were recorded in the wet season. Conclusion: The rural advance of Culex quinquefasciatus into different eco-vegetational zones is more extensive than envisaged. Based on the high densities, behavioural attributes of endophagy and endophily, it may become an important vector of rural lymphatic filariasis in West Africa." @default.
