Laboratory studies and field observations in relation to the preference of Mansonia titillans (Diptera: Culicidae) to for oviposition over certain plants in 3 hatcheries of Havana Province (Bauta and Batabanó) and Havana City (Parque Lenin) were carried out. In the laboratory, the great number of ovipositions was found to occur under the leaves of plants such as Spirodela polirhiza, while under natural conditions it was observed that this can occur in egg hatcheries whenever Eicchornia sp is present, because these plants protect the eggs and provide adequate conditions for the larvae to complete the cycle of life in the roots.
针对哈瓦那省(包塔和巴塔巴诺)以及哈瓦那市(列宁公园)的3个孵化场中,致倦库蚊(双翅目:蚊科)对某些植物的产卵偏好,开展了实验室研究和实地观察。在实验室中,发现大量产卵发生在诸如紫萍等植物的叶片之下,而在自然条件下观察到,只要有凤眼蓝属植物存在,在虫卵孵化场就会出现这种情况,因为这些植物能保护虫卵,并为幼虫在根部完成生命周期提供适宜条件。
