(a) Map of northern Senegal showing the three major water bodies (Lake Guiers, Senegal River and its tributaries Lampsar River and Djeuss), the national road N2, cities Saint-Louis and Richard Toll and the location of the study villages (Pakh, Yetti Yone, Roumbatine, Nder, Diokhor Tack, Ndieumeul, Mbane and Temey). While snails were collected in all villages, human samples were only collected in Pakh, Diokhor and Ndieumeul. The elevation of some geographic points are indicated in meters above sea level. Detailed maps of Pakh (b), Diokhor (c) and Ndieumeul (d): dots are households, black lines are ‘roads’, grey areas are water and numbers indicate the known transmission sites within each village.
