A method for detecting and measuring concealed variability in the mosquito, Culex tritaeniorhynchus.

Abstract:

:A natural population of Culex tritaeniorhynchus was sampled to test the efficacy of a proposed method to detect and measure concealed variability. Thirty-nine lethals and ten recessive visible mutations were uncovered out of a total of 125 chromosomes tested.
