Abstract

Bloodmeal samples of G. tachinoides were taken at the Comoé National Parc in northern Côte d'Ivoire. The total of 1154 identified samples consisted mainly of ruminants (37%, whereof bushbuck represented 57%), hippopotamus (34%), and monitor lizard (19%). These proportions changed with the seasons. In the rainy season the portion of hippopotamus samples increased, whereas that of reptiles decreased. Primate blood was identified only in samples taken in the dry season.
