  abstract = {{C}ontrol of the {R}iverine ({P}alpalis) group of tsetse flies is normally achieved with stationary artificial devices such as traps or insecticide-treated targets. {T}he efficiency of biconical traps (the standard control device), 1x1 m black targets and small 25x25 cm targets with flanking nets was compared using electrocuting sampling methods. {T}he work was done on {G}lossina tachinoides and {G}. palpalis gambiensis ({B}urkina {F}aso), {G}. fuscipes quanzensis ({D}emocratic {R}epublic of {C}ongo), {G}. f. martinii ({T}anzania) and {G}. f. fuscipes ({K}enya). {T}he killing effectiveness (measured as the catch per m(2) of cloth) for small targets plus flanking nets is 5.5-15{X} greater than for 1 m(2) targets and 8.6-37.5{X} greater than for biconical traps. {T}his has important implications for the costs of control of the {R}iverine group of tsetse vectors of sleeping sickness.},
