Overview

Mosquitoes are not only nuisance insects and transmitters of major disease, but are important experimental animals. This book provides detailed descriptions of the functioning of mosquito sense organs and of the behavioural patterns that enable mosquitoes to survive in a variety of habitats, and find and attack their vertebrate hosts. This integrated review of the sensory mechanisms and behaviour of an insect group aims to provide an insight into insect biology.
