摘要: The relationship between female mosquito body size and survival rate was studied in field populations of Anopheles arabiensis the Awash valley, central Ethiopia. Body quantified by measuring wing-length. Highly significant correlations were found size, parousness insemination. It concluded that larger An.arabiensis females have a higher probability survival, being inseminated producing more egg batches than smaller adults. Implications for vectorial capacity vector competence mosquitoes are discussed.
