Scientists have made a new discovery about mosquitoes

American scientists have discovered where in fact lay eggs mosquitoes

Established among entomologists the idea that all mosquitoes lay their eggs on the surface of standing water — not true. According to scientists from the USA, which found out new details of the life of blood-sucking insects.

“If you ask any entomologist on the location of the oviposition of mosquito eggs, it will say that it is stagnant water. It’s actually true, but only partly — there are many types of mosquitoes that lay eggs in other places”, — quotes online rusargument.ru the authors of a breakthrough study, researchers at the University of Florida.

According to American scientists, many insects belonging to colexim, that is, to the so-called real mosquitoes prefer to find a more secluded place for eggs than the surface of the water.

“Koleksi lay eggs on a variety of aquatic objects, that is, on some driftwood, stones, and other such things. Thus, they demonstrate the falsity of our theory, generalizing in General all mosquitoes,” says lead author of the scientific work, Professor Nathan, Berkett Cadena.

According to the scientist, they discovered the discrepancy between theory and reality is far from the only one in entomology.
