Micro‐CT imaging of Onchocerca infection of Simulium damnosum s.l. blackflies and comparison of the peritrophic membrane thickness of forest and savannah flies

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 231-238, September 2021., 2021
Micro‐computed tomography was used to visualize in 3D an L1 larva of an Onchocerca species within the thoracic musculature of a blackfly, Simulium damnosum s.l., naturally infected in Ghana. There were no statistically significant differences between the mean thicknesses of the peritrophic membranes of forest and savannah blackflies killed 34–48 min ...
