Evaluation of different blood-feeding frequencies on Glossina palpalis gambiensis performance in a mass-rearing insectary. [PDF]
Parasit Vectors, 2021 Abstract Background: In tsetse flies mass rearing insectaries, the sustainable supply of high-quality blood meals is the main challenge, especially in Africa. Because collection of high-quality and quantity of blood may be an important constraint to production, blood feeding frequency can be a lever to lessen this impact.

Larviposition site selection mediated by volatile semiochemicals in Glossina palpalis gambiensis [PDF]
Ecological Entomology, 2020 1. Tsetse flies ( Diptera: Glossinidae ) are K‐strategist species and deposit a single larva at 10‐day intervals in specific sites. As larviposition site selection strongly impacts reproductive success, the selection of larviposition sites is unlikely to be random and will be subject to ...

Glossina palpalis gambiensis (Tsetse Fly) [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2020 Glossina palpalis gambiensis is a riverine tsetse species endemic in West Africa and thriving in riparian vegetation of the savannah areas from Burkina Faso and Mali to Guinea and Senegal. It is a major vector of human and animal trypanosomosis (sleeping sickness and nagana, respectively) in that region. G. p.

Fipronil 1% pour-on: further studies of its effects against lab-reared Glossina palpalis gambiensis. [PDF]
Parasitol Res, 2017 In order to assess the residual effects of fipronil 1% on tsetse fly survival, male Glossina palpalis gambiensis were released on non-treated and treated cattle, with 0.1 ml of fipronil/kg b.w. as a pour-on formulation. In a second trial, the female fecundity performances were evaluated by feeding teneral females on the same cattle.
