title: Peridomestic breeding sites of Glossina fuscipes fuscipes Newst. in Busoga, Uganda, and epidemiological implications for trypanosomiasis.
abstract: A search for Glossina fuscipes fuscipes puparia near homesteads in the sleeping sickness focus of Busoga revealed puparia and puparial shells under Coffea canephora (coffee), Musa sp. (banana) and Lantana camara thickets as well as under house verandahs and, once, inside a hut. This is the first description of G.f. fuscipes breeding sites in a peridomestic habitat. The implications of these findings in relation to the transmission of the current epidemic of sleeping sickness in Busoga is discussed.
