Aedes mosquito distribution across urban and peri-urban areas of Kinshasa city, Democratic Republic of Congo
Listed in GBIF
This dataset captures detailed entomological observations on Aedes mosquitoes collected from both urban and peri-urban zones of Kinshasa city, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Description
It includes standardized records such as species identification, sex, life stage, and reproductive status. Each entry is georeferenced to enable spatial analysis.
Ensuring a comprehensive representation of Aedes presence and abundance across the study sites, a variety of sampling techniques were employed to target both adult and immature stages of Aedes populations. These included human landing catches (HLC), Prokopack aspirators, BG-Sentinel traps, and larval dipping technique. The data obtained provides a solid foundation to support vector surveillance in urban and peri-urban areas of Kinshasa city.
