A survey of indoor and outdoor Anopheles density, species composition and circumsporozoite rate of malaria vectors on the Bijagós Archipelago, Guinea-Bissau
Species within An. gambiae s.l. are the primary vectors on the Bijagós. Anopheles melas may contribute to transmission throughout the year in the Bijagós. The vector species composition, abundance and infection rates uncovered in this study are useful for informing tailored, effective vector control programme in the Bijagos.
