Glossina tachinoides is one of the 23 recognized species of tsetse flies (genus Glossina), and it belongs to the riverine/palpalis group (subgenus Nemorhina). Glossina tachinoides can transmit African trypanosomiasis, including both the form affecting livestock and the one affecting humans. [1] [2]

Distribution

Glossina tachinoides was known to occur in a broad belt in western Africa and central Africa, from Guinea in the West to the Central African Republic in the East, with a separate population further to the East in western Ethiopia. [1]

Data on the occurrence of G. tachinoides in the peer-reviewed scientific literature for the period 1990–2020 is available for 13 countries. [3] These countries are Benin, [4] Burkina Faso, [5] Cameroon, the Central African Republic, [6] Chad, [7] Côte d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, [8] Gabon, Ghana, Mali, [9] Niger, [10] Nigeria, [11] and Togo, [12] while reports from Guinea, Sudan and present-day South Sudan date back to earlier periods.
