Abstract

Multiple blood meals within one gonotrophic cycle were taken readily at 6-24-hr intervals by nulliparous female Anopheles albimanus Wiedemann. Up to five blood meals were ingested and with each blood meal, more primary follicles matured as well as some secondary ones. This produced an irregular oviposition pattern that questioned the concept of gonotrophic concordance. The first blood meal initiated limited vitellogenesis and the maturation of few follicles. Instead, protein was diverted to the synthesis of maternal, extraovarian lipi
