Progress towards the colonization of Cnephia mutata (Diptera: Simuliidae)

Cnephia mutata was successfully induced to complete two entire generations in the laboratory. Owing to its triploid condition, this simuliid is parthenogenetic and mature eggs may be dissected from the ovaries, thus eliminating both mating and oviposition. C. mutata in Newfoundland is also autogenou...
