[Feeding preferences of malaria vectors in the city of Bouaké and in the surrounding villages of Côte d'Ivoire].
A study of the bloodfeeding behaviour of An. gambiae and An. funestus was carried out in the city of Bouaké and surrounding villages. The results showed that 99.4% of An. gambiae in the city feed on human hosts. In villages, 98.8% of An. gambiae and all An. funestus feed on human hosts. In this area, the anthropophily of major malaria vectors is almost exclusive.
