identifies whether Anopheles stephensi or not

adult.png

identifies whether unfed, fed, semi-gravid, or gravid (any species)

60X lens.jpg

larval photos require use of a 60X clip-on lens (at right; see also tip sheet below):

*results from any other camera/microscope images should be considered unreliable

larva.png

identifies whether Anopheles stephensi or not (i.e., An. arabiensis, An. funestusAn. gambiae s.s.other species are invalid, for now)

larva.png

identifies the anatomy: head, thorax, abdomen, and terminal end

(any species)
