title: [The developmental characteristics of the larvae of malarial mosquitoes in salt water].
abstract: In terms of water salinity, the following developmental ranges were established for the larvae of 5 mosquito species: 1.5% in Anopheles sacharovi, 1.0% in An. atroparvus, 1.8% in An. stephensi, 1.2% in An. superpictus, and 1.0% in An. pulcherrimus. Salinity was demonstrated to affect the survival of larvae to the greatest extent and the duration of their development and weight to a much lesser one.
