Assessment of the correlation between wing size and body weight in captive Culex quinquefasciatus

Assessment of the correlation between wing size and body weight in captive Culex quinquefasciatus

Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Mass production of mosquitoes under laboratory conditions allows implementing methods to control vector mosquitoes. Colony development depends on mosquito size and weight. Body size can be estimated from its correlation with wing size, whereas weight is more difficult to de...
