| Abstract |
The mosquito is widely distributed over the whole world and is important as carrier of malaria. The development cycle is demonstrated using Anopheles stephensi: egg laying, morphology, behaviour and pupation of the larvae. Typical characteristics of males and females are shown, as well as the sucking of blood, which is needed for egg development.
