“…Selective application of insecticide to these sites was considered to have eradicated this species from a 35-mile 2 area (Chadwick et al, 1964). Finelle (1967) selectively applied insecticide to the resting sites of G. f. fuscipes in the Republique Centrafricaine. Challier (1968), in Haute Volta, showed that G. p. gambiensis Vanderplank at night rested particularly on leaves of small plants, confirming studies by McDonald (1960) on G. p. palpalis in Nigeria.…”

“…The insecticide used during the work in the far north of Nigeria was DDT wettable powder, generally applied as a suspension of 2\% active ingredient. Where the dry season is shorter and less harsh it has been common practice to apply either DDT or dieldrin as an emulsion concentrate; dieldrin has been particularly widely used in recent years (e.g., Wooff, 1965;Finelle, 1967;Robertson & Kluge, 1968;Robertson et al, 1972).…”

The literature published during 1964-72 concerned with the ecology and control of Glossina is reviewed and put into context with previously published information. Thirty species or subspecies of Glossina are recognised. Improved methods of sampling have been developed which catch many more females of the morsitans group than other methods and allow more accurate estimates of population density and structure to be made than has been possible hitherto. New concepts of the activity and behaviour patterns of G. morsitans Westwood have been developed from work carried out both in the field and in the laboratory. Detailed studies on resting sites have been followed by successful control campaigns based on the selective use of insecticides. Most large-scale control campaigns during the period under review were based on applications of insecticides from the ground; other control methods used were aerial applications of insecticides, mechanical clearing of vegetation, selective game destruction and a small-scale project using the sterile insect release method. Techniques for identifying and assessing trypanosome infections in Glossina are described and a Table is given of infection rates in various species of tsetse. Differences in observed infection rates can result according to the time and method of sampling but actual infection rates are affected by a variety of factors including the maintenance temperature of puparia and adults, the age of the fly at the time of the infective feed, the age structure of the tsetse population and the hosts on which it feeds. Genetic differences in infedibility may occur between different individuals of a single species and certainly occur between different species. CONTENTS
