Extract

Most field entomologists studying Anophelines limit their collections of Anopheline larvae to those in the third and fourth instar, owing to the lack of success commonly encountered in rearing those in the earlier stages, and regard the rearing of adults from ova as more or less of a “ stunt,” success being so rare.
