  1. N: Total number of anophelines collected by period. HBR: human biting rate per species (Average of mosquito bites/person/night calculated for each site and collection). IR: Infection rate (No. of positive/no. of total analyzed) × 100, adetermined by a positive result on the first ELISA carried out with mosquito pools and by nested PCR of individual abdomens of positive pools, bdetermined by the first and second positive ELISAs and by a nested PCR. CI: IR confidence interval. Pv: Plasmodium vivax, Pf: Plasmodium falciparum. EIR: Entomological inoculation rate or the number of potential infective mosquito bites per species per year. Boldfaced: collection period and name of the species with infected mosquitoes. Anopheles triannulatus specimens correspond to lineage Northwest [41].
