ABSTRACT
The length of the metamorphotic cycle of Lutzomyia (C) orestes in laboratory conditions is studied. The imagoes per ova yielding is 15.98% at an average relative humidity and temperature of X = 26.68 +/- 0.64 degrees C and X = 96.58 +/- 0.94%. Results are discussed as regards the potential for colonization in laboratory conditions.
