  abstract = {{A} longitudinal entomological study was carried out from 1999 to 2001 in {L}ena, a humid savannah village in the western region of {B}urkina {F}aso in order to establish malaria vector bionomics and the dynamics of malaria transmission. {I}n the first year, malaria transmission was mainly due to {A}n. gambiae s.s., but during the two later years was due to {A}n. funestus, which were observed in high frequency towards the end of the rainy season. {PCR} identification of samples of {A}n. gambiae s.l. showed 93% to be {A}n. gambiae s.s. and 7% {A}n. arabiensis. {A}n. funestus constituting more than 60% of the vectors were identified in {PCR} as {A}n. funestus s.s. {T}he persistence of intense vectorial activity in this village was probably due to the road building in a swampy area creating a semi-permanent swamp that provided large sites for larval mosquitoes. {T}hese swampy sites seemed to be more favorable for {A}n. funestus than for {A}n. gambiae s.s. {T}hus, land development must be monitored and subjected to planning to minimize vector proliferation. {S}uch a system of planning could lead to the restriction or even elimination of the swamp that is the source of larvae developing in the heart of the village.},
