  abstract = {{T}he present study confirms the presence of pyrethroid resistance among #{A}nopheles gambiae$ s.l. mosquitoes in {C}{\^o}te d'{I}voire and reports the observation of such resistance in two other countries in {W}est {A}frica ({B}enin and {B}urkina {F}aso). {M}alaria vector populations from {C}ameroon ({C}entral {A}frica), {S}enegal ({W}est {A}frica) and {B}otswana ({S}outhern {A}frica) were found to be susceptible to pyrethroids. {I}n the most resistant mosquito populations, resistance to permethrin was associated with reduced mortality, not only with respect to this compound but also towards deltamethrin. {M}oreover, a significant increase in knockdown time was observed in some mosquito populations before any decrease in mortality, suggesting that knockdown time could be a good indicator for the early detection of pyrethroid resistance. {I}n view of the current extension of such resistance, there is an urgent need to set up a network in {A}frica to evaluate its development. {I}t is also vital that the impact of this resistance on pyrethroid-impregnated bednets be assessed.
