Key Points

Assess the involvement of Anopheles vectors in malaria transmission in two coastal villages of Côte d’Ivoire.
Collected mosquitoes using human landing catches and pyrethrum spray catches
Identified Plasmodium falciparum using ELISA-CSP technique
Collected behavioral data on mosquito feeding habits.
An. gambiae was the most common species in Koukourandoumi, while An. nili was most abundant in Baba.
Behavioral analysis revealed An. gambiae mostly fed indoors and An. nili outdoors.
Three malaria vector species were identified: An. gambiae, An. nili, and An. funestus.
