摘要：

During the 1993 rainy season, 15,806 mosquitoes, including 14,304 Aedes ssp., were collected and tested for virus infection in 702 and 547 pools, respectively. Aedes furcifer (Edwards) was the most abundant species collected througout the survey period. Yellow fever (YF) virus was detected in 187 pools: Ae. furcifer (123 isolates), Ae. taylori (Edwards) (41 isolates), and Ac, luteocephalus (Newstead) (23 isolates). A high prevalence of immunoglobulin (IgG) antibodies was found in human and simian populations. Results clearly indicated that increased sylvatic YF activity in eastern Senegal has the increased the risk of YF transmission among rural populations in West Africa. Our results showed that a minimal survey period may be effective in detecting the circulation of YF in the Kedougou area.
