ABSTRACT
The results suggest that parthenogenesis has no role in development of H. anatolicum excavatum populations in nature. In the absence of males, feeding period is prolonged, females do not fully engorge, are smaller in size, and lay fewer eggs with a greatly reduced viability. However, hatching of a few unfertilized eggs must be considered in performing hybridization experiments
