Occurrence of Two Types of Gynandromorphism in a Sibling Series of Aedes (Stegomyia) Craggi (Barraud) (Diptera: Culicidae)

Abstract

Anterior-posterior and bilateral gynanders of Aedes (Stegomyia) craggi (Barraud) were encountered in a sibling series of this species. The occurrence of two types of gynandromorphism within such a series of mosquitoes has not been previously reported. Reports of mosquito gynandromorphs subsequent to, or not included in the tabulation of Brust (1966) are summarized.
