| occurrence of rickettsia-like symbionts among species of the aedes scutellaris group (diptera:culicidae). | rickettsia-like organisms were seen by electron microscopy in the oocytes and nurse cells of aedes hebrideus and a. scutellaris scutellaris and in the oocytes of a. pseudoscutellaris, a samoan stock of a. polynesiensis and in three fijian stocks of a. polynesiensis. none were found in the ovaries of a. alcasidi, a. s. katherinensis, a. cooki nor in a second stock of samoan a. polynesiensis. it is suggested that the distribution of rickettsia-like symbionts among species of the a. scutellaris gro ... | 1984 | 6433816 |
| genetic relationships among certain species of the aedes (stegomyia) scutellaris group (diptera: culicidae). | genetic affinities between species of the aedes (stegomyia) scutellaris group were determined through experimental hybridization. in this investigation aedes hebrideus and ae. scutellaris katherinensis were reciprocally crossed with ae. polynesiensis, ae. pseudoscutellaris, ae. kesseli, ae. malayensis, ae. alcasidi and ae. albopictus. data on insemination and egg hatch rates were recorded in the reciprocal crosses. of these, ae. hebrideus and ae alcasidi, ae. hebrideus and ae. s. katherinensis, ... | 1985 | 4026444 |
