Louis C Gouagna, Jean-Sébastien Dehecq, Romain Girod, Sebastien Boyer, Guy Lempérière, Didier Fontenille Parasites & Vectors 2011, 4:121 (27 June 2011) La Reunion is a small French tropical island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Facing the many vector-borne diseases threatening the tropical world nowadays, it has about 12 mosquito species, among which is one potential malaria vector: An. arabiensis, a sibling species of An. gambiae. Detailed analyses of historical records from 1996-2009 showed that this species thrives in all types of habitats on La Reunion island. Image: La Reunion island.
