title: [The role of a scraped substrate in the nutrition of Anopheles mosquito larvae].
abstract: It was stated that the larvae of three Anopheles species could successfully develop srapping the substrate for their feeding. The possible depth of scrapping for nutritional purposes was identified for each species. It was demonstrated that the larvae kept in as thin water layer were able to pick the foster from the bottom. The findings revealed the possibility to increase the density of keeping twice as much and, therefore, to increase the efficacy of used equipment and working space in insectariums.
