  abstract = {{C}hikungunya fever is a viral disease transmitted to human beings by #{A}edes$ genus mosquitoes. {F}rom 1972 to 1986 in {K}{\'e}dougou, {S}enegal, 178 {C}hikungunya virus strains were isolated from gallery forest mosquitoes, with most of them isolated from #{A}e. furcifer-taylori$ (129 strains), #{A}e. luteocephalus$ (27 strains), and #{A}e. dalzieli$ (12 strains). {T}he characteristics of the sylvatic transmission cycle are a circulation periodicity with silent intervals that last approximately three years. {F}ew epidemics of this disease have been reported in {S}enegal. {T}he most recent one occurred in 1996 in {K}affrine where two {C}hikungunya virus strains were isolated from #{A}e. aegypti$. {T}he retrospective analysis of viral isolates from mosquitoes, wild vertebrates, and humans allowed to us to characterize {C}hikungunya virus transmission cycles in {S}enegal and to compare them with those of yellow fever virus ({R}{\'e}sum{\'e} d'auteur)},
