Autogenous-anautogenous oviposition in Culiseta inornata from Manitoba, Canada.
Culiseta inornata females, provided with sucrose and deprived of blood, laid a mean of 30.2 +/- 0.9 eggs in the first gonotrophic cycle. Twenty-three percent of these eggs hatched and developed to pupae. Females that were bloodfed after the first cycle completed an additional 1-4 cycles.
