%X Chikungunya fever is a viral disease transmitted to human beings by #Aedes$ genus mosquitoes. From 1972 to 1986 in Kédougou, Senegal, 178 Chikungunya virus strains were isolated from gallery forest mosquitoes, with most of them isolated from #Ae. furcifer-taylori$ (129 strains), #Ae. luteocephalus$ (27 strains), and #Ae. dalzieli$ (12 strains). The characteristics of the sylvatic transmission cycle are a circulation periodicity with silent intervals that last approximately three years. Few epidemics of this disease have been reported in Senegal. The most recent one occurred in 1996 in Kaffrine where two Chikungunya virus strains were isolated from #Ae. aegypti$. The retrospective analysis of viral isolates from mosquitoes, wild vertebrates, and humans allowed to us to characterize Chikungunya virus transmission cycles in Senegal and to compare them with those of yellow fever virus (Résumé d'auteur)
