Summary
| Description |
English: This 2005 photograph depicted a left lateral view of an Armigeres subalbatus mosquito, which was a member of the Nagasaki colony, as she was ingesting a blood meal after having lighted on a human finger. Note the pooling of the blood inside the mosquito’s abdomen as it filled her stomach. The blood was being suctioned through the insect’s red-tinged proboscis, which is its straw-like mouth that is used to penetrate the host’s skin much like a syringe. |
