  1. Total number of An. gambiae s.s. (Ag) and An. arabiensis (Aa.) collected from each locality; molecular form and chromosome 2La arrangement, as determined using the PCR diagnostic of White et al., (2007) are provided. Chi-square P = values for observed vs expected, HWE for 2La karyotype frequencies are provided in the far right column.
