Abstract:Objective To observe the blood-sucking condition and the biological traits such as gonotrophic cycle and longevity of Anopheles sinensis after sucking blood at different temperatures,and provide scientific basis for judging the effect of temperature on the ecological habits of Anopheles sinensis.Methods At the temperature of 19,22,25,28,31 ℃,the blood-sucking rate,gonotrophic cycle and longevity of Anopheles sinensis were observed in the laboratory.Results The blood-sucking rates of Anopheles sinensis were respectively 78.5%,85.7%,98.7%,97.3% and 92.2% under the temperatures set.The gonotrophic cycles were respectively 99,80,56,48 and 60 h,and the mean longevities after blood-sucking were respectively 28.0,22.9,24.3,14.6 and 12.0 d.Conclusion With the increase of temperature set for the experiment,the blood thirsty of Anopheles sinensis increased first and then decreased,and the gonotrophic cycle decreased first and then increased,and the mean longevities after blood-sucking gradually shortened.The impacts of temperature on the biological traits of Anopheles sinensis were not exactly the same.
