Abstract
The filariasis of W. bancrofti with nocturnal periodicity is, together with malaria, the principal endemic disease in the Comoros Islands. Well studied on Mayotte island, which remained a French Territorial Collectivity, its prevalence and distribution are less known in the Grand Comoros, Anjouan and Moheli islands which form the Federal Islamic Republic of the Comoros. The study of the nocturnal microfilariae in the Grand Comoros and Moheli in 1987 is the opportunity to assess the situation of the disease on this archipelago.
