[Virus Manombo (Mg Ar 966), a provisionally new arbovirus isolated from Culicidae in Madagascar].
In April 1987, a virus strain was isolated from a pool of Mansonia uniformis caught on human bait, in a tropical primary rain forest area of the South-East coast of Madagascar. Antigenically, this virus may not be related to other known viruses, and constitutes a provisionally new Arbovirus called virus Manombo.
