Description

Occurrences of Simulium damnosum were obtained on the basis of data collected from WHO-AFRO (https://www.who.int/apoc/onchocerciasis/ocp/fr/) website and in the literature (reports and others document of PNLMT, scientific articles, etc.). Moreover, maps showing watercourses with lava deposits in which simians were captured have been georeferenced.
