Diel sugar feeding and reproductive behaviours of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes in Trinidad: with implications for mass release of sterile mosquitoes
DD Chadee, JM Sutherland, JRL Gilles - Acta Tropica, 2014 - Elsevier
Studies on the diel sugar feeding periodicity of male and female Aedes aegypti were
conducted under laboratory conditions and monitored in single cages using the
polyphagometer device and examined every 2 h. Males mosquitoes displayed two peaks in
sugar feeding, a small morning peak at 06.00–08.00 h (16% of sugar feeding) and a
significant evening peak at 16.00–18.00 h (40% of sugar feeding). A similar pattern was
observed among females: a small early morning peak (18% of sugar feeding) and a …
