Distribution of O. volvulus and O. ochengi throughout Ghana. Pie charts depict relative prevalence of O. volvulus (orange) and O. ochengi (purple) in each community. Communities sampled in central Ghana (see insert) and the number of samples analysed are as follows: Abua (ABA; n = 1), Agbelekame I (AB; n = 54), Akanyakrom (AKA; n = 5), Asubende (ASU; n = 9), Baaya (BAY; n = 15), Beposo (BEP, n = 1), Fawoman (FAW; n = 3), Fawoman-Banda (FAB, n = 8), Kyingakrom (KYN; n = 3), Mantukwa (MAN; n = 4), New Longoro (NLG; n = 11), Senyase (SEN; n = 3), Tainso (TAN; n = 55), Wiae (WIA; n = 14). The colour coding of communities reflect the river basin in which they lie; Black Volta (black), Tain (dark blue), Tombe (light blue) Pru (green) and Daka (red)
