[Influence of the nature of the ingested blood on the gonotrophic parameters of Phlebotomus perniciosus under laboratory conditions].
A laboratory study was conducted about the duration of developmental stages and the productivity connected with the type of blood meal ingested by the female of Phlebotomus perniciosus. The pre-oviposition and egg incubation periods are not affected whatever the blood ingested by the female. The shorter time required to achieve larval development (rabbit) and pupal development (hamster) governs the generation time, shorter than in the other hosts (dog and man). The productivity is greater when blood is ingested from the rabbit and the dog. This is mainly due to the smaller number of eggs retained in females with these hosts.
