Figure 2


Fig. 2. Example of the respiratory pattern of female mosquitoes at different flow rates (F) and different temperatures (T). (A,B) Patterns from a single female mosquito at 20°C, (D,E) from a different mosquito at 30°C. Note that as temperature increases, so do metabolic rate and burst frequency. In all cases a lower flow rate results in a less discontinuous (more cyclic) pattern, with an absence of periods of zero release.
