Survey of mosquito breeding places by a normal-scliool class Equipment : bottles, tumblers, and saucers from the larva in appearance, and breathes from the ear-like organs on the thorax (Fig. 62). Except when disturbed the pupa remains at the surface of the water. After two days it splits down the back and the adult mosquito rises from the pupa skin. Anojyheles and Aedes lay their eggs scattered singly, those of Anopheles floating while the eggs of Aedes sink to the bottom (Fig. 62). The larva of Aedes resembles that of Culex, while that of Ano2jheles lies horizontally, just under the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Hodge, Clifton Fremont, 1859-; Dawson, Jean, 1873-.
