Aedes albopictus were collected in the French military camp of Libreville, Estuaire Province, Gabon, from January to March 2007 by human landing catches during an entomological evaluation of malaria transmission. Inspection of potential larval habitats within and outside the camp showed that Ae. albopictus was found only in artificial containers (discarded tires and small water containers). Associated species of mosquito larvae were Ae. aegypti (L.) and Culex quinquefusciatus. At the same time, Ae. albopictus adults and larvae were also collected from discarded tires in Tcheungue near Port Gentil, Ogoue Maritime Province. Ae. albopictus seems to be established in this part of Gabon's littoral. Further studies are necessary to investigate the extension of Ae. albopictus establishment throughout the country.specializedAedes albopictusGaboninvasive species052 23447147220078756-971Xhttp://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:01004375510.2987/5636.1IRD BondyF B010043755http://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010043755IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes2008-05-302010-08-04fdi:010043755fre
