  abstract = {{A}n entomological survey was carried out in three humid savannah sites of western {B}urkina {F}aso ({B}ama, {L}ena, and {S}oumousso) to 1) update the taxonomy of the {A}nophelcs funestus {G}iles group, 2) examine the role of each species in malaria transmission, 3) characterize the insecticide resistance status of this malaria vector, and 4) determine the distribution of {A}n. funestus chromosomal forms in these areas. {P}olymerase chain reaction identification of the members showed the occurrence of {A}n. leesoni {E}vans in {L}ena and {A}n. rivulorum-like in {S}oumousso in addition to {A}n. funestus s.s. {M}alaria transmission was ensured mainly by {A}n. funestus s.s. both in {S}oumousso and {L}ena and by {A}n. gambiae s.s. {G}iles in {B}ama, the rice-growing area. {T}he insecticide resistance status performed only on {A}n. funestus indicated that this mosquito was susceptible to pyrethroids irrespective of the study area, but it was resistant to dieldrin. {F}urthermore, the occurrence of the two chromosomal forms of {A}n. funestus, namely, {K}iribina and {F}olonzo, seemed to follow ecological setups where {K}iribina predominated in the irrigated area and {F}olonzo was more frequent in classic savannah. {T}his study revealed that the problematic of {A}n. funestus taxonomy was closer to that of {A}n. gambiae requiring more structured studies to understand its genetic ecology.},
