	CDC - Epidemiologic Features of Four Successive Annual Outbreaks of Bubonic Plague in Mahajanga, Madagascar
		In Mahajanga, as had already been observed in 1907 (12), the plague season starts in July or August, during the dry season, when the air temperature is the lowest.
		This is in contrast with the central highlands, where most of the cases occur between October and February, during the warmer rainy season (2).
		In the urban plague focus of Mahajanga, as in the central highlands, transmission is believed to occur mostly inside houses.

		The objective of our project is to discover and collect fossils of terrestrial and freshwater vertebrates from Late Cretaceous rocks in the Mahajanga Basin of northwestern Madagascar and to employ these discoveries in studies of systematics, functional morphology, biostratigraphy, paleoecology, and biogeography.
		Through the course of six, large-scale expeditions, beginning in 1993, the Mahajanga Basin Project has more than quintupled the species richness of Late Cretaceous vertebrates from Madagascar and profoundly altered concepts concerning the plate tectonic breakup of the southern supercontinent Gondwana, and how that fragmentation affected the distributions of vertebrate animals.
