Effect of detritus decomposition time on Aedes aegypti oviposition site selection and immature developmental success
The abundance of the mosquito Aedes aegypti in larval habitats (containers with water) depends on the selection of oviposition sites by the females and on the subsequent survival of the immatures. Both can be affected by factors such as the decomposition time of the detritus, which determines the nu...

The aim of this work is to study the relationship between the selection of oviposition sites in response to detritus age, and the survival of immatures in these sites. To achieve this, an oviposition study and an immature development study were performed.
