The course of the migration of infective larvae of Brugia pahangi within the mosquito, Aedes aegypti, is described. The presence of blood or eggs in the abdomens of mosquitoes at a time when the infective larvae are beginning their migration out of the thorax leads to a significant increase in the proportion of larvae accumulating in the abdomen. The evidence supports the hypothesis that infective larvae may accumulate in the labium as a direct consequence of the insect's internal anatomy i.e. infective larvae on moving into a confined space tend to remain there. In addition, the rate at which infective larvae migrate into the labium is shown to be density dependent.
本文描述了彭亨丝虫感染性幼虫在埃及伊蚊体内的迁移过程。当感染性幼虫开始从胸部分迁出时，蚊子腹部存在血液或卵会导致积聚在腹部的幼虫比例显著增加。证据支持这样的假说，即感染性幼虫可能因昆虫的内部解剖结构而积聚在唇内，也就是说，感染性幼虫进入狭窄空间后往往会留在那里。此外，研究表明感染性幼虫迁入唇内的速率与密度有关。
