Abstract
In four Anopheles species, An. albimanus, An. gambiae, An. stephensi, and An. quadrimaculatus Say, total protein, lipid, and carbohydrate present at eclosion, after feeding on sucrose, and after extreme starvation were quantified to study the effect of teneral and maximal reserves on subsequent fecundity and to judge the extent of reserve mobilization and the minimal irreducible amounts required for survival. All parameters were regressed on body size, presented as the cubic value of wing length. Teneral reserves were isometric with b
