Description of currently unknown larval and pupal forms of Aedes (Aedimorphus) nigrostriatus (Barraud), 1972

ABSTRACT

During routine mosquito collections in a rice cultivation area near Yangon, one blood fed Aedes (Aedimorphus) nigrostriatus female was collected. It was allowed to oviposit and a colony was raised. Adult specimens, male teminalia slides, pupal and larval skin slides were prepared and preserved in the Department of Medical Research (DMR) collections. The morphological characters of the pupa and larva, currently unknown, are described in detail.
