Abstract

The mosquito CULEX PIPIENS PIPIENS is common pest of medical importance that has been reported from most parts of Iran.Considering the potential of house mosquito in transmission of different diseases to man and the discomfort caused by its painful and infectious biting, the study of its biological and ecological characteristics is prerequisite for its effective control. However, its successful REARING in laboratory remains the first step in this respect.In this study we investigated a new REARING method for raising the CULEX PIPIENS PIPIENS in the lab conditions using a commercial brand of MILK POWDER and GOLDEN HAMSTER for larval feeding and adult blood feeding respectively. During three successive generations, the ecological fitness of the insect was examined by measuring seven ecological characters namely survival rate, fecundity, speed of larval development, larval mortality, pupal mortality, total mortality, and sex ratio.We observed significant increases in survival rate, fecundity, and speed of larval development, but reduced larval, pupal and total mortality. However, there was no remarkable change in sex ration when compared to other data on conventional methods of REARING. Our results indicate that the new REARING method supported a Culex population of higher abundance and fitness for lab experiments.
