Abstract
Laboratory breeding and productivity of a colony of Phlebotomus papatasi (Scopoli) over 14 generations are reported and the duration of developmental stages at different temperatures are indicated. It was found that the larvae grew better at 29°-30° C, while adult longevity and feeding activity were higher at 24°-26° C and 27 ± 0.5° C respectively. The development time from egg to adult was 39 days. The behaviour of the larvae and the detailed biology of the adults of P. papatasi and P. argentipes viz., egg laying capacity, feeding activity on laboratory animals and man, effect of aging on feeding activity, time required to respond to host stimuli, quantity of blood meal taken, multiple feeding and oviposition survival etc., are described and compared.
