Abstract
Two complete days of collections and dissections of all black fly species landing on two persons infected with Onchocerca volvulus were made at monthly intervals for 13 months within a single endemic area of Guatemala. A comparison of the infective biting densities and transmission potentials showed that Simulium ochraceum was the only significant vector.Entities:
