Methodology/Principal Findings: 4392 individuals aged over 15 years were studied both by direct examination and a
concentration technique. The overall prevalence rates were 22.4% for Loa loa microfilaremia, 10.2% for M. perstans
microfilaremia, and 3.2% for mixed infection. The prevalence of both filariae was higher in the forest ecosystem than in
savannah and lakeland (p,0.0001). The intensity of microfilariae (mf) was also higher in the forest ecosystem for both
parasites.Theprevalenceandintensityofmicrofilariawerebothinfluencedbyageandgender.Correlationswerefound
