La lutte par piégeage contre &lt;em&gt;Glossina fuscipes fuscipes&lt;/em&gt; pour la protection de l'élevage en République centrafricaine. I. Mise au point d'un piège adapté à un milieu d'éleveurs semi-nomades

Resume-Les films de polyethylene utilises pour la fabrication du piege bipyramidal a mouches tse-tse en Republique Centrafricaine presentent des variations aleatoires dans leur coloration. Des experiences conduites sur Glossina fuscipes fuscipes a l'aide d'un nouveau protocole, combinant dans la meme experience, le carre latin et la competition de deux pieges en vis-a-vis, revelent qu'une coloration legerement moins intense du bleu diminuait significativement l'attractivite du piege. L'utilisation de polyethylene pour la fabrication de piege a mouches tse-tse presente de nombreux avantages mais demande de verifier l'homogeneite de sa coloration.Abstract-The polythene films used in manufacturing bipyramidal tsetse traps in the Central African Republic can exhibit slight variations in colours. Experiments using a new protocol that combines a Latin square design and two competing traps in the same experiment conducted on Glossina fuscipes fuscipes show that a iess intensely blue colouring decreases the attractiveness of the trap. Polythene is useful material for tsetse traps, but is necessary to verify that its colouring is homogeneous.

Tabanids (Diptera: Tabanidae) is one of the most serious pest insect group against both humans and livestock. Tabanids' effects to livestock are transmission of some serious diseases such as bovine leukemia, surra and equine infectious anemia, irritation breeding daily gain and milk secretion loss. Tabanids also transmit Loa loa (Cobbold) to humans. Source control by chemical and mechanical methods has no effect due to the larvae of tabanids living under the soil sparsely. At the present, only trapping of adults is effective for controlling tabanids. Traps for capturing tabanids have been developed in two different ways. Some tabanid traps are diverted from tsetse fly traps in Africa such as Nzi trap, and others are developed for exclusive use in North America, Europe and Japan. The early traps attracted tabanids by their shapes and the visual and olfactory factors as attractant were added to the later traps to capture more flies. I reviewed the history of development on traps for capturing tabanids, visual and olfactory attractants for capturing tabanids and next generations of traps for capturing tabanids in this paper.
