[Culicidae of the French Territory of Afars and Issas. I. The genus Anopheles].

During an entomological survey conducted in French Territory of Afars and Issas from November 1973 to June 1975, eight Anopheles species were collected: A. rhodesiensis, A. azaniae, A. dthali, A. macmahoni, A. gambiae, A. turkhudi, A. salbaii and A. pharoensis. One can note particularly the presence of A. gambiae which does not seem to be observed in the Territory since the beginning of the century.
