title: The gonotrophic status of female Aedes aegypti (L.) overnight at the oviposition site (Diptera: Culicidae).
abstract: Experimental observations made outdoors in Trinidad provide additional support for the assumption that some gravid female Aedes aegypti rest overnight close to the container in which each has laid part of her current complement of eggs the previous afternoon, and in which she may lay part or the rest of that complement the next morning. Some females evidently take more than one blood-meal while developing a single batch of eggs.
