| Egg ultrastructure of two morphologicaly similar species of the Arribalzagia Series, Anopheles (A.) costai Fonseca & Ramos, 1939 and A. (A.) mediopunctatus (Lutz, 1903) are described and illustrated using scanning electron micrographs. Although similar in the adult stage, male genitalia structures and larval and pupal stages, the eggs of these species are distinct. The eggs of A. costai and A. mediopunctatus are compared with that of A. forattinii Wilkerson & Sallum, 1999. Incomplete illustration of egg of A. forattinii is provided for comparison. |
