Key Points

The study aims to inventory Anopheles mosquitoes to assess biodiversity and malaria transmission risk in Morocco.
Conducted a survey of Anopheles species in the Eastern Rif region of Morocco.
Identified vector hotspots based on species distribution.
Analyzed the potential of multiple species as malaria vectors.
Refined understanding of Anophelinae biodiversity in the region.
Identified key areas with high malaria risk based on vector species.
Confirmed the presence of multiple potential malaria vector species.

Implication

Inventory refines Anophelinae biodiversity understanding in northeastern Morocco, indicating malaria risk hotspots.

Abstract

This inventory significantly refines the understanding of Anophelinae biodiversity and associated malaria risk in northeastern Morocco. The identification of vector hotspots and confirmation of multiple potential vector species highlight priority areas for targeted surveillance and control.
