The Development of the Salivary Glands in Anopheles Albimanus Wiedemann (Diptera, Culicidae)

Abstract
A great amount of detailed information exists on the development of various organs in immature insects and on the differentiation of imaginal discs especially among the Diptera (Bodenstein, 1953). Except for a paper by Thompson (1905), it is altogether surprising to find that for mosquitoes there is apparently no description of the growth of the larval salivary glands or of the origin and development of the imaginal glands. Even the anatomy of the larval glands has received scant attention (Imms, 1907, Salem, 1931, Frizzi, 1947, Schildmacher, 1950), and this mostly in connection with other problems.
