ABSTRACT
The biology of a notonectid bug Enithares indica against immatures of Anopheline, Culicine and Aedine mosquitos was studied in the laboratory. The life cycle of the bug consists of the egg and five nymphal stages and takes about 64 +/- 1.54 days for completion. All stages of E. indica have good predatory potential. It can be used as a biological control agent in an integrated disease vector control program.
