[Influence of larval nutrition on the fecundity of autogenous and anautogenous females inside the Aedes (Ochlerotatus) detritus (Haliday, 1833) complex [Diptera-Culicidae]. (author's transl)].

Using two sibling species of the Aedes detritus (Haliday, 1833) complex, one autogenous (A) and the other anautogenous (B), the role played by the larval environment on vitellogenesis was confirmed. A poor larval diet reduced the fecondity equally of both autogenous and anautogenous females. With the latter however blood meal ensured the maturation of a not negligible number of ovocytes.
