Abstract
Aqueous extracts of Culex molestus (auto-genous), C. quinquefasciatus and Aedes aegypti adult mosquitoes were identified by infrared spectrophotometry. The most important differences were the relative intensities of the peaks at about 6.95 and 7.2[mu], and the relative depth and shape of the broad band from about 8.6-10[mu]. These qualitative differences were reproducible with different batches of extract from the same sp.Keywords
