Abstract– Experiment was designed to find out the effect of low temperature on tolerance of eggs of Anopheles stephensi Var mysorensis. Eggs were exposed to various length of time to two low temperature regimes 2.0 ± 0.5 °C and 4.0 ± 0.5 °C to study the relationship between temperature and hatchability (percentage hatching) and hatching time of eggs following their incubation at normal 30.0 ± 0.5 °C.
Key words: Anopheles stephensi Var. mysorensis, Hatching, Pond water, temperature, Instar, larvae, Mortality, lethal, larval life
