The size of emerging and host-seeking Aedes aegypti and the relation of size to blood-feeding success in the field.

R S Nasci1.   

Abstract

The average wing length of Aedes aegypti females collected as pupae was 2.47 mm, which was significantly smaller than the 2.64 mm average wing length of the host-seeking females collected in the field. The average wing length of nulliparous host-seeking females was 2.62 mm, which was significantly smaller than the 2.76 mm wing length of parous host-seeking females. Thus, small Ae. aegypti females exhibited reduced blood-feeding success and, most likely, reduced survival when compared with large adults.
